Akihabara at Night
F.L. Blumberg
After the otaku shops, electronics megastores, and maid cafés have closed,

still drenched in synthetic glare,

Akihabara late at night is where you can pause at last,


though some are just starting to work.

The unthinkable materialises,


©F. L. Blumberg 2026
the inscrutable beckons,


©F. L. Blumberg 2026
the familiar looks mysterious,

@F. L. Blumberg 2026
subtle trouble slinks past,
and, with every stride, the street seems to speak your mind.
