Wet pavement in the dark
a river of glistening black
reflecting
city lights
stop and go nights.
Reds and yellows--
gaudy jewels in the mist.
Neon fires
lighting the way
for shuffling crowds.
Street corner jazz
fills the air--
slow, hypnotic,
stirring my soul
I sway in time--
a pill for the masses
in the cool evening air.
The city's rhythm
a subtle beat
ice and heat.
A swirl of colorful chaos
swept in shadow and light
vital, alive,
on the midnight highway
on which I walk.
