1.Baltimore=
In Baltimore the lightrail slows down through Howard St which is one
of the worst streets in our city; I can see all the heroin junkies in
slo-mo while we wait at red lights and 5 minutes for the homeless people
to cross.
D.C.= In D.C. the people are dressed in too nice of
trenchcoats and talking on bluetooths to ever make you feel like they'd
throw you onto the tracks before the metro if you didn't give them .40
cents. So there's less of an adrenaline rush.
2. Baltimore= In
Baltimore to get Mexican food you have to visit the taco trucks on
Broadway or go to one of the restaurants where they sell soda cans with
brand names that are all written in Spanish. Sometimes you have to go
to this restaurant as many times as you can. There are illegal
immigrants working there and the INS has a pattern to come to these,
show their badges, and read them their rights (which are pretty pale).
D.C.= In D.C. all the people dress up to
go to Mexican restaurants and you don't see anybody wearing a bib or
speaking another language and the waiters are too friendly and bring
your food out right away. This speeds up the amount of time that you
are there so that you don't feel like ordering a Tecate, getting tipsy,
and really getting to know your buds who you haven't seen all week.
3.Baltimore=In
Baltimore when you are walking your dog you often cross roads where
there are buildings where the windows are all shut up with boards,
plywood, and 2 X4's. This helps you run faster which makes your blood
go to your head faster because in my case; I realize that I've crossed
into a neighborhood where there's a lot of foreclosed homes + Section 8
housing . And in the end I'm better off because all the blood that went
to my head and all the brisk walking sort of cleared my head.
D.C=
But in D.C. everywhere that you go has colored row homes with plots of
grass that people take care of and nurture and there's few and farer
between abandoned lots that you can dream about saving and cleaning to
rescue on your own.
