this skate spot is being threatened
the glass... the graffiti
this stuff puts people off
but really
if my dog is chewing something he should not chew
I do not just take it away from him and reprimand him
I take away what he is not supposed to chew
then I give him something he is permitted to chew
if the city removes this skate spot... they should replace it with something else
I say do not replace it... but embrace it
legitimize it
make it easier for people to keep it clean
trash cans... a tool shed with brooms
and some users of this area to volunteer to keep things respectible
after the tour de dc alleycat a cluster of racers gathered at the bridge spot to catch up
everyone got a chance to tell their tale of the tape
