Roof Alexander Quotes

We All Shared A Feeling Of Hunger, Empty Bellies, Bottomless Appetites That When Filled, Kept Us Up At Night. When We Spoke We Shouted, All Our Voices Together, A Chorus Of Pleas, And Rooftop Dreams, Voices Carrying From Building To Building, No Skyscrapers To Block Them, We All Shared A Voice, Devouring The Ears That Accepted It, That Opened To Us. We Would Be Heard. We Would Dizzily Take In Those Sunrise Nights And Talk About What It Would Be Like To Be Heard.
