After A While

Swap places with me and maybe
you'll see the smiling stillness
of the city, poked and provoked
by a sudden change in the scent
of the air. It lies camouflaged in
a heap of boredom or
an aching inspiration. Leave it
alone and it will seduce you
with an endless variety of names
and sparkly signs, comforting textures
and vibrant colors, and the promise
that you may not see
another sunset again.
