I'm on the upper west side in a sneakily decorated apartment that belongs to jen and emily.

I slept on this couch.

It's comfortable

like the city streets

And all of the coffee shop entrance ways

That call

With scents of amaretto hazelnut mocha

venturing out into the street

Like you
Following you

For blocks

Until you turn a corner

But the sentiment will linger on,

A faint fluid aura haunting you with the smell of sweet things,

The visuals of one thousand restauarants

An overwhelming number of choices,

It's a foreignness somehow transformed into familiarity

Just make you've got some cash

The metropole is not an institution, but a shelter for inspired wanderers,

Those curious hipster kids

Ravenous for novelty.
