The City
January 16, 2011
Graffiti scrawled on a bathroom stall
Teens running up and down the hall
Chorus of "Fight! Fight!"
As a boy descends into night.
Dingy cafes and dirty stores
Gxng signs written on the door.
Women playing the guitar
Many more come from afar.
Sounds and smells, bouncing
Off high buildings with shadows pouncing.
On the street lights
A fierce battle of dark and light.
The city, land of art.
