The taco truck got a new wrap

The bushes have yet to be trimmed

That's a new painted tire advertising for an auto shop

The hair braiding shop got a new name

The car lot was rebought

New awnings panels

New stone on pillars

Signs blew off

Walls burned down

Concrete crumbled

Vines overgrown

Clovers bloomed

Light bulb's out

Window's busted

Walls streaked with mildew and rust

Dust tracked onto concrete from ruts born into grass

Dried grass stalks overtaking what once was green

Moss hanging down, casting more shade than the actual tree's foliage

Pink shirt, hair bouncing, leggings overly bright

Companion listening obediently

She's a daisy

Loving dog, wagging tail, lolling tongue

He's a bear

Where do I fit into this world?
