What a city!
What tales to tell!
A pizza boy crossing the street
impatient, tired features
clicking of heels on the stairs
their elbows touch
strangers from different worlds
intimate for a fleeting moment
Wailing of an ambulance
crashing with the seductive smell
from the corner coffeeshop
A girl flirting with the waiter
while round the block
at a divorce court
one fairy tale ends
Yesterday's newspaper
left on the bus seat
a homeless man in the park
humming quietly
the city has many faces
Raindrops on your office window -
is it a life what's happening out there?
