Music of the City
August 28, 2011
Do you feel the city?
The continuous rumbling
Of cars out on the street
And the clanging of the subway
Far beneath your feet
Do you hear the city?
It’s engines,
People on the go
And the footsteps
Of more that you don’t know
Do you see the city?
The jam-packed streets,
Where buildings can be found,
And that place where one
Reaches toward a cloud
Do you smell the city?
The food,
It’s vendors here and there,
And the thick exhaust
That defines the city air
Do you love the city?
The one that never sleeps,
Do you love it’s music,
And the people that it keeps?
