asphalt holds (sedit)

I’m waiting with everyone else crosswalk light clicking in the concrete a bus sighs at the intersection and my brain says what if the street just lets go? what if all of us drop straight through the painted lines? what if we all just let go? what if we all start falling? into nothing into nothing into nothing into nothing and then... we’d all be in it together falling without a floor falling through the surface until it stops feeling like falling someone would bring up new fashion and the benefits of vitamin B12 we’d visit each other in the darkness like neighbors in the apartment what if the asphalt won't hold? what if the curb just crumbles? what the bicycle goes headfirst? and what if we all start falling? into nothing into nothing into nothing into nothing and then... we’d all be in it together falling without a floor falling through the surface until it stops feeling like falling *Lyrics by SED NO1*
