Memorial for Eric Ng
I feel as though I missed out on something tragically good in never having met Eric Ng.
From the out pouring of love, the most wretched of howling sadness and laughter from such a diverse and expansive congregation of everyone in NYC one can plainly see the universe lost one of its brightest stars - extinguished in body by a drunk driver but immortal in spirit in the hearts of the many he touched.
The memory of his explosive and joyous 22 years on this great Earth was celebrated in a memorial bike ride from Washington Square to the site on the Hudson River Greenway where Visual Resistance placed a Ghost Bike in Eric's name.
Mere despair doesn't delve deeply into the emotional void left when such a Champion of Decency is ripped from our lives in such a meaningless, violent way. However, one can take comfort in knowing that his life and memory and love and energy were celebrated to the fullest extent of human possibility.
"Do not go gently into that good night".
Love & Rage.
