[palo verde]

yes I was born in Manhattan on Riverside Drive
(behind Harlem)
lived there till we moved to Flushing, Queens when I was 8
then at 17 I moved back to Manhattan myself
I wanted to live in city
but whole time my dream was to live on farm
I still want that dream to come true
Love, Palo

You may not be on a farm yet, but at least you've escaped the city. That's sure a step in the right direction. I did the opposite - moved from a small town to the big city and thought that was exciting. For a year or two, it was.
