Empire Act

Empire State of Mind.

Fashion District, Manhattan

.sometimes i forget that am 20 stories off the ground and it gets cold up here sometimes in that knowledge. and this building shakes often and i wonder why, a sound structure over taking an entire nyc block. sometimes i even forget that there are 21 stories above me and i wonder why this place shakes. sometimes i forget the streets below are hollow with tunnels and i wonder why these tremors that i can clearly see in the water atop my desk? i wonder why this building shakes so often in the winter, is it expanding and contracting in the winds, is it the trains grinding steel deep down below, or the weight of its occupants shaking in anticipation of friday, i wonder why this building shakes so often on mondays, is it me? is it you?
