    I love this one babe, seems whatever topic you choose you're right on! I enjoy visiting the big cities and exploring, but don't think I could ever live in one and feel safe. 5/5

    This brings back many memories for me, most of them not so good. I miss the variety of places to go and things to do, but I'll never again live in a big city. I love the country and the feeling of security :)

    The rhytm and diction reminds me of W. H. Auden's: 'The Night Mail". You have portayed an impressive side of city life not taking much dig at it. A very good poem. I specialyy appreciate:

    Noisy crowded buses run
    Taxi cabs they scurry
    Pavement crowded...must keep moving
    The faceless people hurry

    How insignificant individuals are in the crowdy humdrum of city life.

    I'm new here, and have never lived in the city. But this poem makes me feel like I have actually experienced it. Profound, sensitive, all things that are worthwhile are in this poem...I did love it.
