walk

I walked to my Wednesday night meeting
tonight. From Grand Central at 42nd Street
to Gramercy Park at 21st, where Lexington Ave
ends. It took maybe 30 minutes. I stopped
at Original Famous Ray's Pizza on 26th and Lex.
Before I got there I walked through little Korea
and little Pakistan. I've never seen so many Indian
restaurants in one place; but I guess that would
be the place to go if you wanted some good
mulagatani. I should have had that instead of
a calzone, but I didn't have time. I enjoyed that walk.
Everyone rushes around in this city, on buses and cars,
trains. Choosing the walk was a great idea,
because I hadn't been through that part
of the city, on foot. I had never seen a sign
for a Pakwan restaurant before. How sheltered
have I been from the world...
