things
I like about New Jersey that I missed in California...close proximity
to NYC, daffodils and irises
bagels,
pizza,
loudmouths, diners,
buildings made of bricks,
no hipsters,
change of the seasons,
green
grass with dandelions in it,
the ravine,
old ladies who have their hair done just to
run errands,
Babe's taxi sign in Fort Lee NJ which reminds me of Babe
Ruth and the yankees, small town political rivalries,

| Fort Lee, NJ Italian Saint Rocco parade |
the Mets logo on shirts, comic book shops with less emphasis on Tolkien
and more on DC and Marvel, everyone walking their kids to school,
driving across the George Washington Bridge, buying good sweaters in the
thriftshops but window shopping at Henri Bendels and Bergdorf Goodmans
and Trash and Vaudeville,
nut vendors on Canal Street, old bars in
Manhattan, Broadway casts - wait I'm talking about New York now
