&quot;Everyone is different, it&#039;s the natural state- it&#039;s the facts, it&#039;s plain to see. The world&#039;s gray enough without making it worse. What we need is individuality!&quot;<br /> - Billy Elliot&#039;s &quot;Expressing Yourself&quot;

I'm a city girl.
The flashing lights,
the crowds,
all relax me.
My ears hurt
if there is silence;
it feels right
when there is din.
I admire the countryside,
peaceful and calm,
but it is simply strange
to see farms with
cows and horses
roaming free,
rather than
golden taxi cabs
patrolling Manhattan streets.
