it's same town, again

this is someone else's city,
their
town,
it's where they live
and shop.
where their children
go to school.
it's their
barbershop,
their park,
and city hall.
this is where they live,
not you,
wandering around
with a map
and a cup of coffee,
wondering if you too
could live here.
doubtful,
for after an hour it
looks like
everywhere else
in the country,
and that makes
you blue.
