neon night
in Yonge-Dundas Square --
alone
I mingle
with faceless crowds
Everyone looks like they're connected to someone or something: talking on their cell phones, or growing plastic vines attached to tiny iPods from their ears. Still, others are steely-eyed, mouth-set and concentrated on getting where they are going.
in Toronto
the meeting place
I've nothing to do --
one two three...

Note: The origin of the name "Toronto" comes from the Huron word toran-ten, which literally means meeting place.
