Allergic to suburbia

Departing Walnut Creek, Shannon and I could not stop sneezing
We had to conclude, with her just entering her 20s,
and me one year closer to exiting mine,
that we must be highly allergic to suburbia,
and gratefully greeted the grey skyline
bursting from the seams as viewed from the Bay Bridge
fog threatening to cloak the blue sky so available only minutes earlier
and probably sighed secretly to ourselves,
"I'm so glad I live here right now."
