Slick Urban Sheen

Slick urban sheen
Motion through shadow and light
Lights pass by
Glowing flight of time

Dark frames the picture
Figures glimpse out of sight
Lights break the dark mass
Speed through the night

Engines hums a soundtrack
Hard rev, smooth to fierce 
Crack of turbo gunfire
Rage contained on wheels

Listen to the engine
Listen to the night
Listen to your heartbeat
Feel the desire to drive
