Palindromes

In China I would have "WTF? Moments"

on a daily basis. You turn a corner, you

see a child defecating openly onto a side

walk. The next day you see a family of six

riding down the street on a single electric

scooter. These things became the norm

I would get a kick out of seeing something

I never expected to see.

I displace myself 3 months and some 9000

miles and here I am. Getting out of a stair-

well on the 5th floor of Columbia Universities

Creative Writing building and I see this poster.

While it was entirely different from my Chinese

experiences, it elicited the same response.
