NOTE FROM THE MISSED CONNECTIONS CHIEF BOTTLE FINDER:
Pittsburgh is one of my favorite cities. There’s a “Phoenix rising from the ashes” quality about the place that’s fun, creatively rich, and affordable (hello, NYC, are you listening?). This poem reminded me of Pittsburgh. If you don’t know the city, your only image would be that of an old, faded industrial town but when you take the time to see it for yourself, the beauty and history unfolds. Today, we feature a sampling of what the Pittsburgh MC has to offer.
Lost in Translation
Missed Connections in Pittsburgh, PA
Things would have worked between us
if I had not been from another place
and another language.
All that you have of me is this dry faded picture;
While all my details and what makes me special
is lost in translation.
