It's all relative... a sign of the times.
UNCOMMON COURTESY

A horn's blast, insulting alarm
shattering sea shells, detonation of peace.

Flashing WALK signals beckon wary pedestrians
into misguided muscle-dominated streets.

"Common courtesy" run out of town,
substantively replaced by menacing disgrace.
