The Starry Light

At the entrance are a pair of eyes
With a painted warning
Entering into a dark mouth
Leading to an extinguished fire
Resting places for the underworld
Where homeless men
And feral stays
Sleep alongside broken glass
Cigarette butts and plaster
Overlooking the old park
And the new highway
The ceilings and roof are gone
Creating a courtyard
Of fire stained bricks
Corroded steel beams
Painted warnings, cryptic signs
A star lit passage to heaven
