After leaving L.A. and returning to NYC I safely thought I'd seen my last Possum. The ugly beasts had always scared me when they'd show up every night in my Cali backyard. So imagine my surprise when they showed up on the streets of Brooklyn... in my front garden!! I tried to give a tip of the hat to Edgar Allen Poe's "The Raven" this time out. Don't know if I've succeeded, but trying sure is fun.
