| World of wanderers |
2am in the orange glow of the street lights I feel strangely at peace. I'm not sure why but life's worries seem to melt away on warm nights like this. Seinfeld urban foxes gives the city a second life (not to be confused with that awful online world filled with yiffing and other unmentionable things). This city belongs to the insomniac, drunkard, taxi cab and the thief.
A world without visible people, most snug in their beds, isn't as disturbing as it may sound.
I hunt for a kebab(some habits are hard to kick) but none are open. Outside of the drunk and taxi lain streets of Watford us wanderers are not catered to.
I see another pass me by on his meandering. Not a wanderer like me but a drunk struggling to get home. While not like me he is one if us. The empty night belongs to him as well.
An ambulance turns to a street in front of me. They are not part of this place, but travel through it. Collecting those of broken sleeper or the drunks who drank too much.
The quiet increases as I near my own place of slumber. This quiet world will pass from me to those still here till it is passed to others only to be drowned out by a waking world.
This world will return again. when sun is gone and people rest. Will you walk this wasteland? Or will pass it to others as it passes you by.
Good night and sweet dreams all. Thank you for the world of quiet.
