This used to be the Texaco station where I filled up the gas tank when I first started driving. It closed some time ago, and either the owners or the folks in the community opted to turn the old service station structure into a mural. I’m not sure why, but I like it.

on Kalima Street,
bare trees and houses await
the children’s return

this is what happens
when we fail to understand
the value of life.

passed it ev’ry day
but only took a picture
once I moved away.
