A Strange Neighborhood


 
A strange neighborhood perhaps,
Nevertheless one adapts






The Flaneur takes a daylight walk to reconnoiter two odd buildings on Eighth street.






Tonight we going to pitch a ball,
Down to the union hall







A part of town with its own style
Different than most places





  Workers create the wealth of nations






Workers of the World unite






Determined not to be made to suffer
Despite false rationalizations for austerity









 The building survives the by-gone Church
Cornerstone of a working class populace







Trees cast shadows in reflected light
  A mood of redemption






 Hope for a New Year





  Green front window







Past, present, and future






 Noble trees stand up to the relentless highway





 Never seen anyone there  
In the post-Catholic era







 Flowers last through the winter







Home Sweet Home
Iron bars are advised I suppose
