For this project, I decided to combine various poems by Rob Montgomery:
Everything in the city is perfect
The voices in the city are sacred
The streets belong to no one
Whenever you see the sun reflected in the window of a building
It is an angel
The people we love become ghosts inside of us
And like this we keep them alive
