What lines are found in environments conformed out of all demarcation?

What line separates the
Rumble of the wheels
From the
Howl of the wolves?
_
Can you find it
Here
In the endless prefabrication?
Premade markers of
False prosperity ,
Same roofs over
Same walls enclosing
Same dreams of a
Dreamless life.
_
Can you find it
In the conformity of
Expectation?
_
Can you hear the
Howling wolves
In the
Rumbling wheels ,
Through endless identical streets
Passing you by?
_
Can you hear it now?

That's how I felt growing up, like being closed in but in an open space. Open spaces in the city were few unless you lived near a park like I did and yet, even in that park, the view of the apartment where I grew up was always in sight. There was no escape unless I closed my eyes and fantasized.
