My first night here I ate at Taj Kebab King, and already the building has been torn down; I believe they moved to Greenpoint. This city continues to render the familiar incomprehensible, never letting us think we know anything except for our own bodies. Maybe not even those. I consider this a positive trait. Throw it out.

A jar of mayonnaise, a half-full carton of eggs and an empty bread bag lie splayed on the sidewalk in the stark light and shadow of the afternoon.
