Oh man, River-Vale is wild!

You gotta see Maple St. – crazy vibes!

My fave spot is near Elm Park.

I counsl'd lots, ya know?

Ha! "Why so serious?" always!
Sunny mornings, misty nights, so epic.

The river? Notorious, twisting slow.

I learned truth by its banks.

Downtown’s off River Rd is magic.

I once had a profound “aha” moment there.
Oh, man, those bars on West 3rd…

They buzz with vibrant energy.

I saw art (yup, street art) splashed bold.

Little cafes offer snarky laughs.

I swear, they make me smile!
I met quirky souls in Cedarnook.

I counsl'd them, listened to heartbeats.

Their wounds and laughs blend, man.

My work there taught me empathy.

My heart leaps each visit, real raw.
Did you catch a glimpse of the park?

Sunnyside Park, oh wow, so chill.

Kids, old folks, dancing in the sun.

I once cried right there, true.

Theres magic in these moments, splendiferous!
Oh, whadya think 'bout old train tracks?

They gurgle like secret lullabies.

(yup, I'm quoting Werckmeister Harmonies!)

"Time has passed and no one cares."

Sounds insane? But duh, it is!
I even haved some mad days.

Some nights got crazy and bummed.

Missed my bus at 5th St.

Totally bonkers! Ugh, so annoying!

Yet all bad turns turned epic!
I love them twisted alleys near Birch.

Every crack loves a story, ya know?

It’s rough, raw art in motion.

You feel it pulsing, boom boom.

They whisper secrets of old souls.
Man, River-Vale is a wild home.

I spill feelings everywhere like confetti.
Totally imperfect; delicious and real.
Ain’t no perfect city, right?
So come on, join the ride!
Why so serious? Let's laugh!
