Columbia: A Strip Once Churning

Between these dells that weave
Through the upper left of my body
I feel the dying light
Of a star once burning,
A strip once churning
Full of life and the future.
Alleys and fudge shops that
Bowled and fed
The engorged among us

But now they sit starving

Beneath the Big Sky that once shown a star
But now only plays the closing credits.
