that reminds me of the wonderful experience of my yout' in southwest
philly when a band of hooligans collected every tree in the trash during
the designated week after christmas, piled them around a light pole in
the middle of the park, and burned them all. it was a sight to behold;
oddly pagan, and strangely appropriate, in hindsight.
everything was okay until the heat of the fire melted the metal pole,
bringing it down in a shower of electrical sparks. one of the guys
involved later became a fire fighter ...
it was a glorious one time event. i'd love to see something similar in
clark park but I know FoCP would never support such a use - maybe our
own local burning man.

John Ellingsworth

the city of philadelphia today concurred with neighbors who had tossed a tree
on my porch last week that my flagarant disregard for the christmas holiday
would not be tolerated when sanitation workers left the tree while taking my
bagged trash this morning. somehow they could tell that i had not brought it
inside and placed a star on top of it during the last week and apparantly won't
haul it away until i have.
my plan now is to wait till april, then torch it in the vacant lot. i'll be
sure to invite everyone. it'll be a sight to behold.
