i was hoping new orleans would look like this all over. Desolated deteriorated crooked with rust. Is it a superiority complex? I want to feel healthier than a city? Or does it help me accept old age to know that things live on past their usefulness and aren’t immediately discarded? Or does it help me confront death to know that all things crumble into dust? From what I’ve seen of this city, most of it doesn’t look like this. It looks like people have replaced the windows, put on a new roof and painted the pillars on the front porch and are back to living.
