City Man Walkin'

I'm walking now Shoes chew up the path Leaving stragglers Arriving shortly Two day old food carried in stomach Churn, churn, churn Feet run, chewing fast City someones coming my way They're walking now Shoes chew up my path I'm the straggler Stampede, stop, cross, stampede Delay in arrival Apologies In city In city no escapology Rush you very much Mute nasal variations with strong aftershave Smile at watch when making time Constant tocker Constant ticker Time, time, time I wish it was quicker Work alert Alpha drive Quicker time buzz word Silver skinny snap cylinder Keep me chewing Keep me churning I'm walking now at pace I'm turning I'm arriving now in place Liquids churning

Great descriptive fast paced write James:-) I live on a very small quiet Island now I find if we go away to a big city its a little overwhelming especially all the crowds and the hustle and bustle:-) hugs Jan xx
