iron pressed against back, thighs and rear-end foot losing feeling grounded by concrete other bounces to a beat
flies buzz ants march leaves and my hair sway in the breeze skin, and clothes warm in the sun
sun going down cooler pale, white-gray sky laughter, cheers raised voices snippets of conversation streets bustle with people iron fence separates me from them exchanged glances as they pass by
greenery surrounds me at my feet, back, and overhead geraniums a splash of hot and pale pink interrupt the otherwise monochrome pots
birds chirp busses rumble keys jingle horns honk lights flash music intermingles an ever-changing soundtrack of the city.
