illuminated bridge at night

Like something you’d see in a dark alley…
If you dared…
If you felt that secure…
Or were that stupid…
And maybe you were blown-away with what you saw…
A city-forestry of luminescence…
A sweetness in the domineering gloom…
A lovable quality in what is misunderstood…
Hidden..
Secret…
With all it’s been through – sensitive…
taken advantage of…
manipulated…
shamed…
special…
A treasure to protect—savour…
A spray-paint illusion of multicoloured light
Framed by the stark contrast of imaginary night
