Up a winding road
with the ocean
at your back.
no sign
of any town.
But,
next to a seven-eleven
there is
an alleyway,
only three people wide.
This tunnel
takes you away
To a secret maze, hidden
From the outside world.
Small streets lined
With shops,
Twisting and turning
Along the side
Of a mountain.
Like a tangled up wire.
Not a car to be seen
Only rivers of people
Rushing through every street.
When the day is over,
The town transforms.
A ceiling
Of lanterns light up,
Strung over every street
Glowing, bright in the night.
