Eve Roper Poet Verse

Notes About The Poem

  

City Glittering Nightlife

As the moon bathes me with ardent solace where does my day lead, 
as I’m drawn to you with bleeding tears


I will trace your lead in this concrete web
Holding effortlessly still
surrounded by dim veil

City illumination lends means
to its forged beating soul
Intoxicating control
drawing to false streets of dreams

Sightless to being
Dismiss urge to yield to a
submissive embrace 
Enraptured by seductive 
city glittering nightlife
