"what actually is"
moving through a city route,
noting the way a bus door opens,
the way two strangers negotiate space
at a crossing,
the way afternoon light
angles across a shopfront,
all rendered in a single,
continuous line that feels improvised
but what actually is deliberate.

This poem speaks to the mind asking what is coincidence and what is planned, what is correlation and what is causation. Introducing man and city creations brings into mind what is real what is not what is man created and what is nature and are we not nature as well and all this just our perspective. Nicely done Cryptic. I think I dove too deep this time
