We New Yorkers like it fast, tasty, stylish, and dramatic. We're also secretly emotional; for every uninterested glance we throw, we're always on the look out for signs, connections, nostalgia, and the illusive magic of this crazy city.

This morning I am smiling ear to ear after reading this Times feature on New Yorkers' haikus about the city. Read it and weep (I tried to pick a favorite, but I couldn't).
