August 31, 2006

Today
Ten years ago
I dragged a heavy suitcase
onto the island of 
Manhattan, 

all bright lights
sparkling
and absolutely overwhelming
on a Thursday night

Ten years ago
Today
New York became Home
it coursed through my blood

And every day
every night
since then
It has done so, relentlessly
incessantly
beautifully

New York, 
Honey, 
Oh I love you so.
