Zero Is Your Maximum - Kitty Wu

Black spots

Spread across your face

They are bruises from the hailstorm

Got no

Calming injections

Or mattresses to rest on

You add up the final sum

And zero is your maximum

The city has always won

When zero is your maximum

You don’t look

Anything like you

No heat left in that body

The structure is

Crooked and weary

And spent like easy money

You add up the final sum

And zero is your maximum

The city has always won

When zero is your maximum

The city can’t protect you

From it’s open spaces

Dress you up in concrete

Loose you in its mazes
