views: (pt. 4) exhaust

the pressure grows
the warning lights come through the cracks
but well prepared, we stay composed

we transfer its woes
through pipes and through smokestacks
from tunnels below

but it’s all for show
for though the trees still shade our backs
for now, the system’s closed

    Free associating here but this reminds me of My Brightest Diamond’s ‘Pressure’
