Oh My City.....

Broken debris and wracks spread here and there

Skyscrapers kissing the cloud without a fear

Good, bad and ugly... sudden laughter and tear

Fast or slow.. to the front or rear

 

How are you my city? Where is your royal nest?

Keep well my city.. I have buried my dreams on your chest...

 

Someone dawdling through a waterlogged street

Hesitating to stroll and achieve the fleet

Dried pebbles, fountains... a rejected lover\'s heart-bleed

Gloomy inamoratas and gigolos... or a sudden strike indeed

 

How are you my city? Where is your royal nest?

Keep well my city.. I have buried my dreams on your chest...
