The buildings stand

Too close in the city

Heavy hot breaths

Breathing down your neck

Snapping pictures 

Of your periphery


The country life

Is more of a slow malaise 

Sitting back on a rocking chair

Steadily swinging at your own pace

But you must understand your tempo

To find that steady rhythm
