I've had the idea of writing a poem about a city full of energy for awhile, so thank you Metaphorest for your colored city creation which pushed me to inspiration.

Cities feel different

There's a current running through them

An electrified wire that connects

Every streetlamp with every skyscraper

It surges up through the soles of your shoes

Snaking alongside every crack in the pavement

A neverending house party

Where the speakers vibrate the very fabric of your jeans

Instilling the rhythm into your body

The air you breathe buzzes with vibrant anticipation

I hope I get this job.  Did she just wink at me?  Look Mom a butterfly!  I'll have that office one day.  Best concert of all time!  Will you marry me?

Sights and sounds moving too fast to identify

Colors blur together in a hum; a whirring gyroscope

Lines extend against buildings, reaching as arms towards the sky

Sound waves engulf you, wrapping you in a thick blanket of music:  melodic, harmonic, and purely sonic

A buzzing electricity

A kinetic energy

The city and all its creations glow with excitement
