(Mar 27) Back to the city. In and out, very quickly. Most trips there end up like that now.

long long long underway
The new leader

eventually it will be finished, too
Tallest in the city

The LIRR windows are never clean

(Feb 7) To the city and back.

it is blue
We meet again, old friend.

electric go bye bye
Hicksville. No, really.

moon over hicksville
It appears to be full

on the way to somewhere else
I wait, and watch the cars go by

diesel locomotion
Until it arrives, and I depart.

(Jan 18) Somehow, between my last post and this one, I apparently took 100 photos I didn’t save. I’m quite sure I have no idea what that’s about. I revisited some familiar places.

and pooped for eight years
The house where Billy chased his Kong

the fake brick is pretty awful though
It hasn’t changed much

"on time is whatever we say it is"
Things come and go, and and come and go again

and it's as empty there as it ever was
The building in the foreground is new, it just doesn’t feel like change.

signs of sadness
A former housemate puts the Will G. stickers up. He says it is to honor his son, which is of course a nonsense excuse for defacing things. But for those in the know, it expresses how much he misses his kid.

intersections
Go and Stop. A metaphor for my life.

(Jan 8) Suddenly, nothing happened. I am still in Port Jefferson, apparently for the year. But it doesn’t feel like home either.

burned
There’s been a fire

it wasn't a residence, whatever it was
I don’t really remember what was here.

peace
Through the woods

waiting
Past the train yard

for now
Toward where I sleep

(Sep 2) The long tyranny of August led into a short September, whereupon I had to move, yet again. As I write this, in February, it appears I will be moving again before summer, and quite possibly soon. I really don’t know why I bother packing and unpacking anymore.

back here again
I made a point to catch sunset at the train station.

moon
It’s times like this that the camera shines compared to all of my previous digital cameras.

that might explain why I'm back here again
I’ve noted that I seem to be seeking out overhead views. This is inevitably a problem since I don’t have access to many.

incoming!
In a bit of luck…

return of the commuters
A train was arriving.

camera, please ignore bright lights
Its lights turned out to be overwhelmingly bright.

more likely I'm too much of a wannabe to know how
Perhaps you just can’t film an oncoming train in twilight.

the lights, they're so bright!
When it got closer than this, the lights overwhelmed the photos.

eye-pad
Someone waiting on the platform probably means that same train is going to roll back into the station westbound in few minutes.
