from "Angels In America"
Harper: In your experience of the world. How do people change?

i'm from brooklyn
neighborhoodr-williamsburg:
worb:
i’ve gotten stabbed 4 times in the past year
or
i shower once a month. i live in williamsburg and treat urban outfitters like it’s a fashion mecca. i smoke in prospect park with all of my dirty hipster friends and buy flannels from goodwill.
Observations:
1. When you’re crying about basically nothing while eating a cheeseburger on Bedford Avenue, it’s probably time to go home. 2.
