Better Than Real Because It's Not.

(Apr 27) It is now undeniably spring. And it becomes time to ponder the reasons why I am still here.
Familiar turf.
Though I still have not seen it all
I wonder how many times people have walked past this sign.
This will now always look the same, every time.
Disney, stayin classy.
Beer. The cause of, and worsener of problems.

(Jun 19) Roosevelt Island is about to get a large dose of change. It’s going to be change they won’t like one bit. It’s inevitable though. Underscoring this, it’s a Bruce Ratner project now, who will co-own the buildings, which come with free land, courtesy of the city. I can’t help but think the city is poor at selling itself to have to give so much away to those who will directly profit from this initiative. The idea that anyone has gotten a piece of Roosevelt Island free just seems scandalous.
Arrival. Deep underground.
It is a beautiful place, with a view of the east side.
Aside from the subway, and a bridge to Astoria, the tram is the only other way on and off the island.
And then on the other side of the tram bridge… you’re there already.
Now you see it… soon you won’t.
A familiar sight
The old, and falling down
The new and unfinished
The UN-United Nations

(Mar 31) The end of March. April waits in the wings.
A swarm of cars
As far as the eye can see
Takeoff
The Cloud(s)
Today’s theme is …
Another swarm
Birds in a snowstorm.

(Jan 30) The time is now. I have decided to replay the formula that got me to Brooklyn the last time. I have taken This Side of Paradise and The Great Gatsby off the bookshelf. This time I won’t be reading them on a porch in a rocker, with Billy in my lap and a brandy at my side. I hope the effect is the same. F. Scott Fitzgerald was wrong about one thing, I’m about to start my third act.
The present sucks.
The past calls to me
Change is required
To get to the future.
