NYC Skyline of the Day: One World Trade Center, built over six years in the spot where the Twin Towers fell, surpassed the 1250-foot Empire State Building as the tallest in New York today. Construction is expected to be completed in December, when the height of the building will be 1368 feet, with the antenna spire pushing the edifice to a final height of 1776 feet. [nydailynews]

It was like the classic scene in the movies where one lover is on the train and one is on the platform and the train starts to pull away, and the lover on the platform begins to trot along and then jog and then sprint and then gives up altogether as the train speeds irrevocably off. Except in this case I was all the parts: I was the lover on the platform, I was the lover on the train. And I was also the train.

Embraces from all the wrong people
leave you sadder than none from the ones
you need the most, and

sometimes the same arms can feel so different,
but you can’t ask limbs if there’s anything wrong

or if it’s just you
that’s feeling drafty.
