I reminise ( spelling) about the days back when on a staurday night we all would go to byberry for a good time. I loved how the cops never came in after us just waited outside for us and then persued us!! I miss this place
I live in Philly. What's the address? Is it still accessible?
Long walks down a hall that ate away the life of a man of hopeless choices.
Each step kept him upright when falling seemed the better choice.
Putrid clothing hung from a form that still felt empty after meals of institutional blandness.
If only he had a visitor to keep his spirits up. To keep him upright for a little longer as he walked down that lonely hall to the social madness
of his empty encampment.
@Mary McWilliams: Very well said. Beautiful.
