N        ight: NYC, somewhere over                          Manhattan,
a man stands                      on a roof hitting
a crack                                 pipe; he is the       hero of this nightly
saga of good vs. evil; he is the stocking
          stalker; somewhere far bel                      ow in the concrete
canyon women are                                           wearing stockings w/
suspender garters                .                  & belts as if it were 1959;
   but the stockin                                         g stalker sniffs them out; we
are now far, far into the future & one man
cannot stand to see woman parading their
shapely gams to the glee of the all-male &
lesbian crowds so this man follows a dancer,
she's naked under her Burberry         trench                  coat & he follows
her into the Subway on                        Sixth Avenue where
                it is neon rat-light all nigh                        t never stop burning
the                   plastic tiles &the            station-master sees the dark menacing shadow
traipsing in after Lily the                         dancer who takes the late train
every night & alert station man call the Stocking Stalker! who already knows
                              Lily is in trouble;
he can tell by   the bags at her stocking
o                                         knees & diving across train tracks
stocking                      stal                        ­                  ker hurls the mad stocking slasher  sp  
to the track directly in                             front of an oncoming A train ;
Oh thank u  stocking                   stalker, she cried        , u kept me from getting a run  
      oh  Lily if u only knew...It is I
                            I a but the lowly            .             doorman at the club;
u wouldn't look             twice at me                   but I see u naked eve t y night being ogled, felt up & fondled ; Oh, lily the life of a super g hero is a curse;
