"On Hard Terrazo"
A voice called Retta
Looked up to see her riding a big escalator
Beyond a sun, behind a floor
On hard terrazo
The point of this is to make you think about what life would be like in such a weird place. This can be connected to cultures, disabilities, whatever you like, just be sure to give me credit if you cite it. (No one will notice I didn't intend for the poem to have a point.)
The theme of this poem is "weird places" as the entire poem takes place behind a floor, which is scientifically illogical and weird. However, the inhabitants there seem to have mastered it, as shown by the big escalator, thus showing a message about culture:What seems weird to you is normal to others.
