A Busy City Intersection Art

urban street with city activity

A rainy city street at night, neon signs reflecting on wet pavement, umbrellas, glowing shop windows, cinematic atmosphere

An impressionistic oil painting in the style of Edgar Degas, depicting a busy ballet rehearsal room. In the left foreground, a young dancer is seated on the floorboards, hunched over as she adjusts the ribbons of her ballet slippers. The brushwork is loose and textured. The background is filled with a row of other dancers in tutus and practice clothes lining a long ballet barre, performing stretches and warm-ups, their forms slightly blurred by movement. The room has soft, diffused gaslight, muted pastel colors, and visible brushstrokes capturing the atmosphere of dedication and rehearsal. Focus on the subtle shades of pink.

Southeast Asia. Modern day. Back out on the open plain, our bus hurtles toward the city.
Smokestacks and temples rise up from the earth; two visions competing for the sky.
The woman on my right holds a chicken in her lap; rural wealth for a city friend? On my left a Buddhist priest sits in quiet repose and presides over the world.

“And the LORD said unto him, Go through the midst of the city, through the midst of Jerusalem, and set a mark upon the foreheads of the men that sigh and that cry for all the abominations that be done in the midst thereof.” (Ezekiel 9:4, KJV)

Southeast Asia. Modern day. Nearer to the city now, the bus thumps and bumps to a slower pace.
Grinding gears mark spaces between dirty children, playing obliviously in the road.
Neither village nor metropolis, outskirts have no identity:
Just a blurry line of encroachment;
a temporary half-life on the way to something more.

Dust springs up from the tires of trucks headed both ways on the road.
A little girl stands crying in a mud puddle; her brothers laughing from the sides.
She has to learn rejection to participate in this brutal, belonging dance.
A little life, and a little death
for a product truly worthy of its name: a good woman is hard to find.
