Melbourne Candid Series #1295 Collins St

 


Headphones on, the city mute,
He strides to some internal flute.
Scooters glare and engines preen
He’s marching through a private scene.

“Vapes!” cries signage overhead,
“Parking!” argues white and red
But none of it can quite compete
With whatever’s got that beat.
