gazed on wrought gemstones, on gold, on silver,
on wealth held and hoarded, on light-filled amber

Fundamentally, I don't like the whole concept, says a man who says he lives next door to the North Berkeley BART station: "I don't see how this benefits the community," he says, adding, "It just doesn't make sense to me." #berkmtg
