While the sun stops, or br seems to, to define a term br for the indeterminable, br the human aspect, here br in the West Village, spindles br to a mutilated dazzle— br br niched shards of solitude br embedded in these brownstone br walkups such that the Hudson br at the foot of Twelfth Street br might be a thing that's br done with mirrors: definition br br by deracination—grunge, br hip-hop, Chinese takeout, br co-ops—while the globe's br elixir caters, year by year, br to the resurgence of this br climbing tentpole, frilled and stippled br br yet again with bloom br to greet the solstice: br What year was it it over- br took the fire escape? The br roof's its next objective.
