A hand on my arm,

Something brushed my side.

There’s something

Too bright

In the sky and my eyes.

The red on the crosswalk

The greeen on the traffic lights

And a wall of people

Pressing

And pushing

On all sides

Click click

Goes the signal

Barring my way

There are rocks in my shoes

Matching black asphalt

And a too loud

Performer

With ten cents in a bag

Click click

Goes the signal

Barring m...

There was city lights,the traffic lights were flashing red yellow then green ,there were no people i felt like i was the only one there i looked arournd and i saw the moon it was kind of like a banarna shape....

Dark skies look down upon

The city, so bright and loud.

People talk, unaware

Of who stands among

The overwhelming, busy crowd.

I stare at stars, scared

Of manmade lights.

Wishing I could be up there

Instead of down here....

The cold air slapped my face as I shut the hotel door behind me. I wanted to take a late night walk to explore the city. Going down the wonky concrete stairs I made a right turn using city lights as my navigational stars.

As I made my way through the food market the fragrant aroma of the stalls filled my nose with spices! As first it was so strong I coughed a few times but once I acclimated I wa...

The wind blows in my face as I look around…

I can hear tree branches creak and rustle

The echos and howls of the creatures in the night

There is no traffic in sight

I can’t see what’s in front of me, not my hands nor my feet…the fog makes it seem like there is no road or sidewalk or…anything

Where am I? I start to think.

What could I use to protect me?

How did I end up here?

My feet are shaky a...

I know not where I wander.

Though, I can’t help but wonder

If whatever called me, mysteriously

Is also leading me to my destiny.

People tend to call me optimistic,

Overly, specifically, that is,

I don’t disagree. I see opportunity

With every step, everything I see.

I wonder what these people who pass

Surrounding my left, right, and fourth wall glass

Would think about my journey here,

My destinat...

Lights glare in a noir sector of a foreign town

Dark thoughts intrude as the atmosphere surrounds

No map no sense of direction yet the path is clear

Motion blur with a destination unfound

In my skin but out my mind

On the clock but out of time

In the wind while I unwind

Around the block and so benign

Sublime internalizing my exterior

Surreal yet out of control but not inferior

Imperial dreams luci...

As I walk down the busy street

I look around the chaotic city

Lights surround me so beautifully

Green lights send cars speeding by me

I stop and look at the people carefully

Each one has a different story

I don’t stay long I must hurry

Must get home safely

So tomorrow I can see the busy city...

In absence of the sun

Where only streetlights glow

Your feet feel smaller here

The world begins to grow

You are but a tiny speck

In a monstrous cosmos

You can feel it as you move

Through the sludge of dirty snow

Skyscrapers tower over

As they do during the day

But even the carts of vendors

Seem larger in a way

Your shadow is so tiny

In the clock-tower’s watchful eye

Its midnight ticking a re...

It was Jan 8th and my family was moving to another city, so we moved in to a questionable place called Detroit.later after we was done packing it was 9:54pm so we got some rest, later that night I woke up to a disturbing noise, I thought it was nothing so I went back to sleep, I soon later woke up again to a startling screeching noise, it freaked me out so I went to tell my parents about it. I was...
