Replying to a comment on:

Soup Can (Free verse) by oneglove

Live your life Between shadows and spotlights A love of beauty A taste for fright Someone may notice The eyes in the blinds Your silver and gray Will have their time But you're jumping off buildings Just to part the crowd For someone to notice You can make a sound As you sit up high Ants scurry in throngs You finally know What you knew all along It was never home

my sense of perspective and viewpoint got scrambled between verses 3 and 4; chilling finale and knockout opening... not conviced by self-rhyme of along, though...v3 seems a little clumsy
