New York, I am in your subways
again. And I feel...nothing.
No overwhelming desire to claim you for my nest,
nor to nestle in the bosom of your neighborhoods,
no broken cries over you,
nor flowers as a token of my love, because
I do not love you. If we're honest, at best
we've got an understanding, and I am fond of you
when I taste childhood on my tongue.
