On Seeing "Star Trek" at a Times Square Imax Theater


When you do something other New Yorkers have demonstrated
in great numbers they too want to do, you find yourself thrillingly
in the tidal mob pull of a zeitgeist/gestalt moment: part of
a directed mass alignment of consciousness: one nearly mindless
cell in a million-celled organism whose collective nose points
at a significantly singular prey. But that's the sort of day one has
here every day.

You be me
and I’ll be you.

That will be
about as true

as me-as-me
and you-as-you.
