Scaffolding climbs everywhere, To help keep the canyons of stone In repair, Ancient patricians, Are now made small, By newer creatures Of glass and steel, Look off in the distance, See how small we really are, The avenues run- Forever, Broad, Steep to. I stare down my chest, To the pavement, Hard, Hard as the hearts of the faceless, But not like the balding, Smiling, Red headed dad, Who got his son last week, The same day, That he got his AARP card. I'm off to a dinner A dinner unlike any In Syria, Either Syria.

Manhattan Night - August 2012
Scaffolding climbs everywhere, To help keep the canyons of stone In repair, Ancient patricians, Are now made small, By newer creatures Of glass and steel, Look off in the distance, See how small we really are, The avenues run- Forever, Broad, Steep to. I stare down my chest, To the pavement, Hard, Hard as the hearts of the faceless, But not like the balding, Smiling, Red headed dad, Who got his son last week, The same day, That he got his AARP card. I'm off to a dinner A dinner unlike any In Syria, Either Syria.
