New York is more, much more than a city of dreams:
A helpful junkie in baggy grey flannel slacks, sweat shirt,
holed socks, newspaper filled down-at-heel sandals, says:

What's A Poem
what's a poem? a dream no less
not a verse? yet it's more...
a soufflé turned out well?
a thrown honed pot? glazed and
fired to perfection not a 'second'?
a new experience? a shattering blow?
a chilling cold that runs you
through and through? yet it's more...
a coming together in the readers' mind?
some say it's a gift the first line
perhaps? yet it's more...
a poem is a pearl? ... but it's more ... it's more
