Night Games
City light, moon light mesh together
To form a fantasy of color and vibration
Dancing off the slick, grey streets casting
Diamonds in the air.
People shopping, people hopping
Cover puddles of rain, laughing and
Scurrying to and fro, not going anywhere
Important except to nowhere.
City smells clash together creating
A perfume of excitement and wonder
While people trapped in their autos
Feel safe from all the joyful turmoil.
Solitary streets wait to be discovered.
Hidden within adventure and fear of
The unknown shops and denizens.
Bad boys hiding in the shadows.
Marquis signs and popcorn smells
Invade our sences to new heights
And compel us to come in and
See the Best Show Ever!
Let's play night time games, let's
Do night time things. Remember,
Our lives hang in the balance
Dangling by a thin silk thread.
