STARDUST

street lights & sky lights

.

don't you just hate the way the city lights blind us to the stars?
how in the countryside they are visible, standing out in their blues and reds, sporting their individuality.
how here, in this city,
                         in our city,
                               in my city,
                                    in your city,
                                          they fade to just another white speck on
                                           the dark blue blanket that is the night sky.
