Mountain peaks reach the tip of the atmosphereSky lines of gloryPrecious stonesScorching summer breezesCool nightsLuminous lightsConstant chatterInterchangeable spaceThere is more to Las Vegas…I love this city but in all honesty she has done absolutely nothing for me and you know what; I never expected her to. I knew it was up to me, ya dig? It was by being here that I was pushed to grow, learn and remember who I am. Like everyone else, I forgot.I was born in the city but raised in the country. I have experienced the best of both atmospheres. I have come to know the fastness of the metropolis pace and I have discovered how to appreciate the slow crawl of the countryside.This town can never be duplicated. At the same time it is both city and what I will call confederate, both speedy and sluggish, both sophisticated and thuggish, both smooth and rugged.So I had to send a shout out to the city of what we refer to as just Vegas. Leaving this place will allow me to prosper plenty but as I think back, there is nothing like Sin City.Copyright 2008Literary Thought
