Tokyo
October 22, 2019
I watch as the blinding lights of the Tokyo wander and guard their surroundings.
Making their place and existence elevate.
Inspiring youth to create.
A city testing intelligence.
Like a sci-fi movie covering all layers from the sea to the heart of the development.
Temples and shrines covering the edges of the metropolis.
Existing in concomitance.
An animated paradise that refuses to back down.
What was once a trail of nothingness to a skyscraper compound.
A rich, detailed, and diverse quantity of food.
Complying with imbued mood.
Combining old with the new.
Peace wandering in the shadows of the centuries old shrines anew.
Tock.Tock,Tock,Tock.

I adore Japan, so much that I’m learning Japanese. Even though I hope to travel there someday this is my depiction of of its enthralling capital city.
