The Bustle
I rush across the street
Neon counting down
The time until
Cars come flying past
Lights in the window
Of a shop
Open at 1AM
Never flicker
People walking around me
That I
Have never met
And never will
Sounds of a thousand
Conversations nearby
From groups
Of friends and coworkers
The lamps along
The sidewalks
Whites and yellows
Of the reflecting lights
Forget that cities never sleep,
Cities never die.
