and the day ended as it had begun

The haze sucked up the light and the day melted back into the colorless forms of water and sky. the city still whirled and honked as the day quieted and the people all made their way home with trinkets and decorations. tourists climbed aboard buses with rolling engines. cars thunder across bridges, bike carriages trudged along roads and up hills. lights were turned on in a twinkling spasm as the sun was reclaimed by the haze and disappeared into the horizon. the day was over and the night had begun. it all starts and ends in a haze.
