pulsing, thriving, dying.
 
a city is an organism.
it just keeps going around you.
 
you never know what's going to be around the next corner.
completely new....completely old....all at the same time.
 
you can barely see the sky.
the road system curls around the skyscrapers in and out and around.
this city of mine.
oddly futuristic. like the jetsons.
one minute you're underground, the next atop an overpass stacked 5 high.
go past the pier, the museums, the little artsy places, the high end fashion shops, the coffee places....oh the coffee places.....at LEAST one per block.
this is seattle after all.
up into the little windy streets full of quaint old houses.......
down into the warehouses and shipyards,
past the run down abandoned places.
 
it's all alive.
even the dead looking places are alive. and i love it for what it is.
so different everywhere you look.
different and alive.

    For some reason I've read alot about Seattle lately...I wish I could visit there.  Maybe someday?  For now most of my knowlege of it comes from watching "Frasier!"
     
    But I love your descriptive words about it!
  • Fallyn said on Apr 04, 2008....
    *laughing* frasier only shows parts of it........it's small in area...but goes up and up and up and up.
     
    thankyou though.....i keep trying to capture feelings in my words and i feel like it doesn't always work.
  • wombat said on Apr 04, 2008....
    I would imagine only being there would help you capture it.  I will keep it in my book of dreams...to visit there one day!   But I think you did a swell job!
  • wombat said on Apr 04, 2008....
    Did I just use the word "swell?"   Ha...what a dork I am....
  • Fallyn said on Apr 04, 2008....

    I click on you, and I get hungry. God am I hungry. Can you make me something? I'm helpless.

    now that's my kind of city.. =)
  • Fallyn said on Apr 06, 2008....
    queen...what is it like where you live?
  • queenparanoia said on Apr 06, 2008....
    well if youre talking about my life back in iloilo. it's kinda laid back since i live in a city that not really urbanized but still have some modern conveniences. i like it there but kinda slow for me. here in manila is like any other urbanized city in the world... =)

    i've noticed that cities have their own feel......some click with me and some don't.......i'm sure manila must have it's own personality....i hope anyway.
