"Rhythm of the City"
Mind racing. Heart thumping. Rhythms pacing. Music bumping.
Horns blowing. People walking. Litter flowing. Shoppers talking.
Taxis zooming. Buildings rising. Business booming. Fashion sizing.
Lights blaring. Shoes tapping. Passers staring. Awnings flapping.
Papers flying. Fires stoking. Babies crying. Poultry smoking.
Dogs pooping. Children playing. Seniors stooping. Parents praying.
Meters running. Trucks parking. Cops cunning. Drivers barking.
Bikers peddling. Traffic moving. Vendors meddling. Dancers grooving.
Singles moping. Couples holding. Lovers groping. Marriages molding.
Card sharks shaking. Stocks falling. No money making. Sellers calling.
Liquors flowing. No one's buying. Discontent's sowing. People dying.
This is the pulse racing Rhythm of my city.

ReplyDeleteThanks Alex. It took a long time to get the cadence accurate as well.
ReplyDeleteGreat work! Very unique style.
ReplyDeleteThanks Existentialist- I was going for the brief/ abrupt phrases, rather than long prose. :D
ReplyDeleteI like it! Loved the rhythm of it, and the choppy sentences. I like the free form, though poetry.
