Leesburg


Buildings listen in the night
When town has gone to bed
And the city comes out to play

Bella Luna Ristorante looks
With knowing eyes at the photographers
With their tripods and cables

Mannequins in golden windows
Lean to evesdrop
On a strolling couple

The buildings listen at night
Sometimes to the music
Coming out of their own mouths

The antique shop knows all to well
The witch
Casting spells in the alley

Buildings watch in the night
China King Restaurant
Sees a wet fortune on its sidewalk

Every night the Bank of Leesburg
Sleeps with one eye open
Waiting for the safety of morning

The buildings wait for sleep
Wait for turning doors on hinges
Wait to curl up in the sun

Sam has never been 6'4'' unless he grew in the last two years because i was always his height. and i think Aaron is touching Sam in the "Red Light" area.

Nice Jeremy.

By the way, I feel like a midget next to them as well and I am 5' 13 1/2"
