Perfection in the Imperfected

Washington is a bar of Ohio State, Penn State, Georgetown, the Red Sox, and Eagles fans. It is one of the best stadiums in baseballs, courting perhaps the worst team, nearly empty. It is a stunning park that is so frightening none wish to enjoy it. It is the home of the highest crime rates coupled with the highest judiciary powers. It is a lipstick stain on the favorite shirt that reminds you of a lost love; the only fallen tree in a forest that spans the river; a sunburn after a long summer day. It is the beauty that comes with not getting it quite right.
