Mary: you can write loveletters to the suburbs.
me: Dear zoning patterns that separate residential and commercial development,
Mary: dear tract housing plan,
I admire your circular drives
your velveteen lawns
your weeping willows
your Caucasian children
Mary: the subtlest of freckles…
me: your view of angsty teenagers
and trophey wives
your complex yet perfect grided roadway system
Mary: your plentiful parking lots
me: last night you showed me your cul-de-sac
sorry for blushing
Mary: haha
me: it was just rounder than I expected
