I am music. You keep me on playlists named after months. You use me to move through rooms: a sonata for cooking, a drum for running, an old pop song for crying when you are sure no one hears. Dainty music is lullaby-soft; wilder music is bass that rearranges the heart. Exclusive music is the song two people claim as theirs — a private anthem that returns like tide. You press play and I make seconds into presence.
I am a city block at dusk: alleys that smell of fried bread, lamp posts stitched with yellow. You have me when you know which store sells the right bread and which bench is safe to sleep on. You use me to find a shortcut, to disappear for a little while, to meet someone who knows how to whistle. Dainty streets are lined in neat stoops; wilder lanes hold murals and open gutters. Exclusive streets are those you only traverse with a companion who understands each broken paving stone.
