Melbourne Candid Series #1292 Swanston St

 


Levi’s logo, midday glare,
Footsteps stitched through city air.
Backpacks sway in commuter rhyme,
Each one late, or killing time.

Pram pit-stop, shoelace fate,
Traffic hums, it doesn’t wait.
Sidewalk theatre, no tickets sold
Just ordinary stories, bold.

    Mostly young people coming and going along that lovely Melbourne's sidewalk. You rightly mentioned the sidewalk theatre in your lovely writing.

    He may be wearing a Levi t-shirt, but he isn't wearing Levi jeans, so it's just a t-shirt, and not a commitment to the brand. Unusual that he is the only person on the sidewalk facing your camera. Perhaps you are walking the wrong direction?

    One arrives while the rest leave.
    There's always someone willing to go against the grain!
