I’d like to believe that whichever reckless moron individual set off fireworks last night on the west side of Manhattan that very well may have attracted the attention of the monster-they were bright enough to be seen here at East 10th Street-simply was too moronic didn’t realize what he was risking, but somehow I believe this post is going to fall

risk is half of the joy of art, yeah. nobody did get killed, so what's the problem? i was just trying to bring some beauty and life to this place, yeah, it's too quiet and empty.

[downtownmia]

Ever heard of murals? Risk your own life next time if you must, not anyone else's.

[deimolition]

murals're good, i got a few of them around the place but it's not the same as fireworks. and no-one got hurt or anything, yeah, so ... y'know. what's done is done, yeah? don't you think they were kinda pretty?

[downtownmia]

Fine, what's done is done, and I hope you won't repeat the experience. I didn't see them very well, I was staying inside.

[deimolition]

well i'm outta fireworks, so it's not like i can, yeah. i just thought it was a pity to leave 'em all waiting like that, y'know, when they're all so full of bright shining potential and stuff. yeah? that's a pity, cause they were pretty amazing.

Let me get this straight: What you want is a risky artistic enterprise, full of beauty and life, and made more poignant by its effervescent nature?

[cafedeinfierno]

Sounds to me like somebody needs to try a steaming hot cup of pure black magic.

[stranglingrose]

You keep offering it to me, and yet, here I remain, magicless. Are you talk, or action?

[cafedeinfierno]

Sometimes destiny only provides for those who seek her out.

[stranglingrose]

You are not destiny. You are an entirely too talkative human, sir, puffed up with air, refusing to be found in either rhetoric or reality.

[cafedeinfierno]

Ha...! How crass! You speak with a bitterer tongue than even the darkest roast I've ever tasted! And I suppose you are fit to make such a judgment?

[stranglingrose]

I am at least as fit as you are, human, if not more so.

[cafedeinfierno]

Ha...! I can't help but notice your lofty speech there, Rosado.

[stranglingrose]

Truly, friend, no one is more qualified to criticize another on their eloquence than you, collier poet.

[cafedeinfierno]

You misunderstand. "Human", you say, as though granted some divine promotion from the species?

I've got a hot and bitter drink for you, amigo. It's called "humility"-- swallow it down with your pride and take yourself down a notch.

[stranglingrose]

Promoted from mere and limited humanity?

You might say that, yes.
