The scene is unfolding,
Dazzling sun drapes the revelers.
Scholars, slackers, stoners and sluts
Pass the day in relative peace
Wandering through the heat
Like birds they pass,
Preening and posturing
Hoping to attract someone
Who they havn't yet met.
Conversations under the leafy greens.
Is kinship at the fore of their collective minds?
I wager not.
But, this does not mean it isn't there
As I can't help but enjoy the view.
No monochrome today
'Rejoice' they cry through their clothing
Riots of shades done peacefully.
Can we learn something from fashion?
Other than we strive to be different
Through all our layers
Knowing yet that we are all still the same,
Underneath the various colours, clothes and names.
