Dwelling in a Material World

Thoughtless people in thoughtless compartments
Did you choose these modern apartments?
Layers of clones with half-hearted gilding
Set in a stack someone dared call a building?

How much did the gray of the city subdue you
For you to allow all its dirt to run through you?

No--live where you must, no need to get packed.
Your walls are solid, my words are cracked.
Pragmatic finance controls where we live.
It's the greedy developers I can't forgive.
