City Secrets

Taken from a car; stopping briefly at a traffic signal.
The entire picture went out of focus, due to the low light conditions of a sweltering evening.
Looked more like a painting to me, only blurry, as if the proportions of water and paint have been improperly measured.
The city has so many secrets, so many truths in her bosom, camouflaged by the glow of its brighter and warmer facets.
Sometimes, in moments of utter I-don't-know-what, I wish to unfold these truths one by one, as if carefully unwrapping a mysterious package, trying to bring out a little facet of the place, where my roots lie.
