a story about how you are not a city

you are not a tower
or city.
cities do not build
walls like men do.
they do not flower
against fighting flower.
they are un-armed.
you are not a city
because cities do not hide.
and cities speak like
towers tower, so
you cannot be them.
all your ground does not make you a city.
and towers,
towers do not defend themselves
against the seasons,
or cities,
or mountains,
or me.
