Tone 1
Man pillars reaching
First to touch the morning
Last to touch the evening.

Tone 2
Dusk dark and twilight
Window shine to the night
Shadows cast by their light

Tone 3
Fast rolling black street
Flashing by not to greet
Friends lost and not to meet

Tone 4
Sunlight shines bright yellow
Pushing back the night shadow
Flashing on high rise window

Tone 5
Pedestrians in crossing
Intersection of pausing
Interruption of flowing

Tone 6
Bass rumbles tires over rails
Pot holed roads over buses sails
Diesel fumes the senses assails

Tone 7
Tenor tin cans crash the early morning,
Songs from rushing horns blare their shrill warning
Drumming foot steps into streets are swarming

Tone 8
Soprano girls crying out gallon tears
Unable to cope with their mounting fears
Can not comprehend where the future steers
