Latenite Anonymity

Compared to home, Tokyo gets dark early and stays warm late. So night is a playground.

Not partying or drinking, just being out of your tiny apartment. Roll around the skyscrapers, cruising broad, smooth pavements on a cheap bike. Treat a bookshop like a library. Test pens in the stationery section. Flirt with retail potentialities, never intending to spend.

Fade into the bottomless rows of a basement Sega, drop a pocketful of coins. Leave no trace but your initials.
