{manhattan jungle} (for) 5.19.12

City music- bright yellow taxis, honking cars, impatient pedestrians, fresh breezes, bill boards and advertisements, doors opening and closing, smelly sewers, footsteps footsteps footsteps, bicycles whizzing by, corner musicians, traffic lights, breaks squealing, car fumes, rustling leaves
Jungle music- bugs buzzing, air still, tapping rain, monkeys squealing, snakes slithering, water gurgling, jaguars lounging, fragrant flowers, singing birds, snapping branches, deathly poisons, muddy pawprints, saturated colors, croaking frogs, new air, each animal fulfilling its own survival agenda, muggy humidity,
The city so like a jungle and the jungle so like a city. And they each have music of their own.
