"Urban"

by Max Phineas

Rooftop to rooftop
Down the fire escapes
We are but shapes.

Fleeting avenues
Beneath drenched awnings
We skate puddled passes

Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses...

Supersonic,
Polyphonic,
Congregation,
Convolution

Shameless disillusion,
Nameless delusion.


This place is not the problem

It's The Solution.

Cole, thank you for bringing back memories of a city I totally love. It's all this and more - a wonderfully diverse place where it never sleeps. An absoulute synchroni-city!
