From Chilltown Blues

It’s the waning days of August. In the U.S., like it were any other year, a lot of people are trying to make the most of the time before fall; this includes lots of traveling both relatively near and relatively far. And if you can find the time and the resources, that’s great. But if you can’t, are you really at a loss?

Yes, sort of, if you’re living in your proverbial redlined place or a trailer park or somewhere near some kind of depot for delivery trucks.

It’s your world to see as much as anyone’s, including the person who’s getting constant deliveries piped to them in a neighborhood less congested than the one it may be piped through.

You are, however, not at a less for being cultured.
