It’s Victory Mosquetastic! A Stroll Around My Hallowed ‘Hood , part II
We will never forget—what sells!
At the end of Part One, we were trembling at the brink of a discovery: down a side street, but a mere two shabbily picturesque city blocks away from the northern perimeter of the future 16 acre complex of memorials, waterfalls, museums, office buildings, retail shops, and restaurants currently still known as “Ground Zero.”
Look! There in the crepuscularity of this avenue of sorrow, the perfidious zealots have already declared their devotion to the One True Way by putting up a sign!!
As we peer down the street, past the well-remembered gloom of darkness radiating from the Dakota Roadhouse, we start, for what to our wondering eyes should appear but men kneeling down! Ye heavens, They’re Here!
With their profane rituals
Exotic costume
And Idol worship
They gather even in the shadow
The very shadow
Of these sturdy bulwarks of decency..these, uh, rather massive, twenty-story bulwarks of dark, dreary, forbidding decency..
.
Where even the zucchini can’t be trusted
They have infiltrated even our subway advertisements
Within blocks, just blocks, of Ground Zero!
Here ends Part Two, with the expectation that there will be as many parts as there are clowns to play them. And judging from the Schiavo-in-a-Hijab-level craziness cranking up, the sacred pavement in front of the erstwhile Burlington Coat Factory will be occupied for months, at least.
