This Unreal City
I live in New York
City
An unreal place
where you see gorgeous women
and plenty of homeless people
This city is a study in contrasts
between the haves and have - nots
It is a cultural mecca
with museums, concerts and plenty of poetry readings
This unreal metropolis
has inspired plenty of writing and poetry
From Walt Whitman to O. Henry
this city has been written
I am trying my humble best
to add to the canon
of writing about
"Baghdad on the Hudwon"
as O.Henry(William Sydney Porter)
named it in an earlier time
