Raised in an upstate town about 180 miles away, many decades ago, from which we could visit the city once or twice a year, before the thruway. Might see a movie at Radio City. I, at 13 or so, would unleash myself and walk Fifth Avenue from Washington Square to Central Park, intoxicated the whole way

buy a hot dog and a pamphlet from Moondog, listen to some buskers, and I don't know what-all before reconnecting, exhausted, with the family. Always longed to live here from the first sight and smell, hitchhiked here in many adolescent crises.
