Manhattan is a skinny little island.
So is Long Island right next to it though ten times the size.
There are "ducks crossing" signs all over the place on it.
We are Islanders.
Aloha.
Hau?oli k?ia hui ?ana o k?ua
Aia i hea ka lua?

Also a good many of the people here are from another island.
A place they refer to as "the island"
Which has Haiti to the left and Dominican republic to the right. its just to
the right of Cuba.
We have hurricanes here.
But its ok if things get rough we can take to the seas in little hollowed
out boats we have in the hallways of our tiny impartment's and migrate to
some other island. 

They have a walkway which goes clear round the whole island of Manhattan
almost. They just finished it two or three years ago. Its brand new. I've
been checking it out getting sunburst like crazy.
I've not found the Gateway thing yet. To me that's St. Louis.

And there are 55,000 trees here. I know I counted them.
You want to go back to nature? Move to NYC.

mysteries under the tropical spell of...."
