During the task of having to clear a path for the installation of the much needed new Air Conditioner, I rediscover myself as the horribly cluttered old hag who never threw anything out, just stacked it neatly.

STUYVESANT SQUARE PARK
In 1836 Peter Gerard Stuyvesant (1778-1847) and his wife Helen
Rutherford reserved four acres of the family farm and sold it for five
dollars to the City of New York as a public park.
His remarkable gift
may have been the most ambitious gesture of Peter Gerard Stuyvesant, the
co-founder of the New York Historical Society and one of the richest
men in America at his time.
A public park in a rapidly expanding city was a priceless amenity, and still is.
Sitting on one of the benches, looking up into sky,
I stop thinking of myself and the world.
Like a field daisy without a field, I become nobody in particular, just another being out of context, floating silently along with all of it.
IT'S HUGE
My little cane is dwarfed.
