Standing Still in Wilmington Square

Wilmington Square on a week day afternoon in June. 

Impressions: Frilly, heavy trees, buoyant greenery, gnarled trunks, overflowing bins, a pigeon exploring the debris.  Oblong bandstand, a person on the ground in a sleeping bag, sturdy benches, men sitting.  Crowds of tiny flies, clouds of cigarette smoke, cloudy sky, warmth. Beautiful and seedy.

Question: What happens when you take a moment to stop and breathe?  Stand still and walk slow.
