2 Am

The lights stay up to keep me awake in this town that is a party. The black night is a dome that cloaks our busy turmoil with buried faces in their bubbles and clouds. Faces pass as fast as the light. The air is hushed in its tone, but it feels like a new wave of life. I stare out the taxi window and watch the town before I have to go to sleep.
