I walk into the masses of people. I look up into the sky and see the buildings, majestic and tall, obscured by the glare of the sun. This is the beehive - the heart of the city. People buzz past me. The car engines whir in traffic jams, their exhaust pipes huffing and puffing. Soon, they are off to the next block, leaving a trail of toxic gas billowing skyward. Chaos is the very essence of this environment. Without it, the buildings that otherwise stand so proud seem lost and confused. They thrive on pedestrians and motorists fawning over them. They really crave the attention they get from 9 - 5.
