Late night

He said everything is okay. The full moon above the 3-storey dilapidated building - what if it fell on the building? The colorful twinkling frill attached to the top floor like a crown. Sky is all black today. I have not seen a stars for a long time. The contrast of the street lights and the actual empty streets. What are these holding onto? It it so yellow. The transformer wire lines confused and mingling with each other racing through the city carrying electric current brought from miles away. How are they empowering so many people? Isn't it amazing? Gone are old days of candle and chimneys at least in the urban world. The late night sound of televisions and people chattering inside the buildings at their miniatured and conditioned rooms. The burgeoning population have compelled so many people to live closeby, to form communities, to co-operate, to tolerate diverse views and accomodate oneself with regular disruptions and at times revert against the unjustness. Cold wind outside are bringing calls of december. Sadly, it does not snow here. People are tired and came home to sleep. Let the day come and they will all be running like machines. Sometimes I wonder if people are living or surviving yet another day. New year is nearby. Another year, huh! Let's be grateful that we came through all good. Let's cheers for this small success. We all have to go a long way...
