East River Sighting
Nestled 'neath an overpass
A homeless guy camps out.
I pass his tent each morning
On my exercising route.
He has a lovely river view
And has no rent to pay,
Although it isn't quite the place
Where I would like to stay.
I rarely see him, but today,
Unfortunate for me,
I caught him as he emptied out
His half-full jug of ***.
If ever you are tempted
To enjoy a river swim,
Heed my advice and find
Another venue for your whim.
This river's reputation
(Not a great one) stays intact
With this daily contribution
From a urinary tract!
