Swanston Street hums in grayscale tone,
Trams ding, sneakers tap, the city’s grown.
Backpacks march with commuter pride,
While headphones build a world inside.
He scrolls through life at signal’s edge
Thumb the captain, curb the ledge.
Around him Melbourne rushes past,
But Wi-Fi holds him steady, fast.

ReplyDeleteNomés cal alçar els ulls per trobar el món real.
ReplyDeleteSalutacions!
What a busy street scene. The fellow looking at his phone may be choosing a new tune to play on his headphones. The fellow behind him is also plugged into a sound system. This is action everywhere I look.
ReplyDeleteA busy street on this day. Great shot.
ReplyDeleteThat's a norm everywhere...
ReplyDeleteWe miss the real world when we're lost in our social media world.
ReplyDeleteAt least you can tell he can't hear anything else... I start talking to other people before I notice they're "plugged in" with the tiny ones.
ReplyDeleteOn his phone!
