Hopper's Cage
Inspired by 'Room in Brooklyn' by Edward Hopper, 1932
"Room in Brooklyn" by Edward Hopper
New York lady
head hung low and lazy
boxes of light cast
across her chalky colored cell
a city tomb at the peak of brooklyn
horizon-free view at her lap
If you’re lonely don’t look up
doze in barred rocking chair
passed out or passed on
a cut rose in a hollowed vase
yellowing like window shades
empty apocalypse windows
city of hollows
her dusty room of solitude
