Looks like you’re many floors up. Must be a really nice view without the pandemic fog.
I miss Chicago. I lived in Park Forest as a kid and loved going into the city.
I think we are lucky that this isn’t November. A lot of gloom would not help.
The fog comes

It sits looking
over harbor and city
on silent haunches
and then moves on.
Please move on soon, in case the message was missed.
