Concrete ribs poke through green skin
Rust drinks rain where walls begin
Owl blinks once on I-beam spine
Counts each step in dust and pine
Shutter snaps the quiet proof
Moss swallows iron tooth
You walk past and don't look back
Lens catches what eyes lack
Footsteps in moss the owl keeps score
Wurlitzer hums behind the factory door
Each print a pixel each breath a frame
You're just a ghost in a forgotten name
Footsteps in moss we're all the same
Graffiti peels like sunburned skin
Vines choke where loading dock begins
Owl tilts head one amber eye
Logs the rhythm passing by
Shutter snaps the quiet proof
Moss swallows iron tooth
You walk past and don't look back
Lens catches what eyes lack
Footsteps in moss the owl keeps score
Wurlitzer hums behind the factory door
Each print a pixel each breath a frame
You're just a ghost in a forgotten name
Footsteps in moss we're all the same
Plywood windows stare unseeing
Nature's invoice past due signed
Owl rotates two-seventy degrees
Maps the miles on crippled knees
Flash bulb pops the negative holds
Time suspended in silver salts
No city glow no crowded streets
Just shutter click and owl heartbeats
Footsteps fade where moss completes
Footsteps in moss the owl keeps score
Wurlitzer hums behind the factory door
Each print a pixel each breath a frame
You're just a ghost in a forgotten name
Footsteps in moss we're all the same
Bus ticket stub in coat pocket tight
Dawn breaks gray through broken light
Owl drops pellet bone and fur
Final count begins to blur
Footsteps in moss the owl keeps score
Wurlitzer hums behind the factory door
Each print a pixel each breath a frame
You're just a ghost in a forgotten name
Footsteps in moss we're all the same
Footsteps in moss we're all the same
Shutter clicks the film ends here
Owl blinks once disappears
