Smoke rose from the towering building,
statuesque and concealed partly by clouds.
The fountains steam and spout water
as we make our way through.

Camera at the ready,
I steal glimpses of the city dwellers.
My finger presses down before I could stop myself.

All of the allure and marvelous
mixing and messes of color and fabric
weave through the crowd, like a quilt.
I’m transfixed in the middle, snapping
and spinning, bending and leaning to find
the perfect angling.
They don’t even know, without them,
this city would be less colorful.
