a lot of water fell last night. it's a wonder anything works in this breakdown. 
the waterworks. yesterday a man jumped, fell or was pushed from the 25th floor 
of a high rise on 47th, or was that mother's day? time warps in the news. events are conflated. today, i know it was today, a man walked down the broken white line on 55th. it was not the same man seen before corona who spoke out loud. this man was silent, he matched his slow steps with the broken line. everything happens virtually. every virtue. what happens now happens eternally.
