6am
Up with the larks
People rushing in the dark
Quickly, quickly from A to B
Where are they going?  
what will they see?
People watching, eyes alert
Do people notice if others are hurt?
Are they too busy to ever see the
hidden secrets of you and me?
Modern day life, everyone busy, busy, busy, only time to focus on self.
Waiting to get on shuttle bus thus morning started 2nd in queue, ended  up last overwhelmed by tourists from other countries, so being English and not wanting to give bad impression said nothing but it made me think, not  for the first time, that we now live in a very selfish society.
