January 4, 2022 - Different apartments, same space

Next door the neighbor opens his door and the super stands outside in the hallway, asking about a leak.
I can hear the door opening and then the door closing, and an hour later, a sound like a foghorn plays on
through the wall. The foghorn is gentle though, soothing in a way. The building like the city has a pace
all its own: we create these memories, these little flashes of life together; different apartments, same space.
