Big Apple
No flying robot to be seen, so……
Oh, Manhattan, I’m in love with you-
your sweat rising through the subway grates
in its pungent musk;
your freaks, your art.
I, too, am a freak-
I, too, will roam through stations of the metro,
eyeing the rats,
and wander home - late even for you,
with dirty shoes and empty pockets.
“New York City you're so big and tough.
My pistols are loaded, I feel rough.
Well. we've heard of your punks and high heeled steppers.
We're bad southern boys and don't you forget us.”
Molly Hatchet

“Heard about them massages, and all those dirty shows
I read somewhere some places never close
While we waste time on yokels, comin' through the door
Big Apple dreamin' on a wooden floor”
net als Heinrich Heine:...
"Woman is at once apple and serpent."
