Under the night sky
#8
A description of life in a city...it's good, and gently funny, yet I don't see the reason why the action scene is in bold and has a different font, it could just be the same as the top stanza, if it were me I would emphasize the "Briefly" by putting a long dash after it like "--". Word processors tend to format that by making it a single dash but theres nothing with the two hyphens. A colon or an ellipsis also works.

I don't really see the point in ever changing the font in the middle of a piece, even though that's certainly an interesting avenue of exploration. In my book of poetry I have a different font for the table of contents, because it's not really something anyone's going to read very carefully unless they already know what they are looking for, it's just a visual flourish.
