Privatization & Deregulation Ruined NYC
NYC doesn't have alligators but it does have moats, that at one time protected the downtown subculture.
This kept away the jocks, yuppies, normal people and other intruders.
By the late 1990's, crime subsided and the real estate developers magically made the hood livable.
NYC was losing it's soul.
By the time the new millennium was near, the real estate boom forever transformed the city's styles & attitudes.
The oddities lost their frontier
Some rolled with these changes, others left the city and some reminisced about the "Good old days". ...

Parroting the warning label,
you only nuzzle up to lab coats
and crooked Brooklyn noses,
stuffed up from the drama.
It's a sniffle, it’s a missile,
it’s underdog, the gristle.
you only nuzzle up to lab coats
and crooked Brooklyn noses,
stuffed up from the drama.
It's a sniffle, it’s a missile,
it’s underdog, the gristle.

An Affirmation
One day, he's going to truly be happy;
everything will fall into place;
every attainable goal his heart desired,
will become his with patience if he continues to stay the coarse;
And God knows he isn't perfect,
though his heart is in the right place;
this too will also be acknowledged one day....
everything will fall into place;
every attainable goal his heart desired,
will become his with patience if he continues to stay the coarse;
And God knows he isn't perfect,
though his heart is in the right place;
this too will also be acknowledged one day....

The elephants
Elephants are huge
they cast giant shadows
have wide flat round feet
and lots of love for the trunk.
Elephants are annoying
with their bodies
stunning
the soft memories
of stupid children's faces.
Elephants know
many and diverse people
which if it's not a friend
must be a far relative.
Such lonely animals
take up lots of space
but they can't hide
because they don't fit
in the closets.
They mess with everything and everyone
want to be part of history
but they get lost in...
they cast giant shadows
have wide flat round feet
and lots of love for the trunk.
Elephants are annoying
with their bodies
stunning
the soft memories
of stupid children's faces.
Elephants know
many and diverse people
which if it's not a friend
must be a far relative.
Such lonely animals
take up lots of space
but they can't hide
because they don't fit
in the closets.
They mess with everything and everyone
want to be part of history
but they get lost in...
