I’m going to miss this ugly dirty beautiful grey green violent peaceful painted sad and striving city so damn much. I don’t think I realized that, fully, until just now. Here’s to my final 24 hours in Philadelphia; the countdown started this morning. I arrived when I was seventeen years old and a freshman in college. All my babies were born here. All my changes started here.
There’s more I want to write, but there’s no time. Must finish packing.
