Working in Times Square recently, I've begun to daydream about a toll for driving through it (with the same rules and exceptions as the congestion pricing zone). I don't know if it would make a difference or be practical. I am pretty sure it's hard to drive or walk there now.

That was from memory. This is the proper text.

The city is so big,

Its bridges quake with fear.

I know, I have seen at night

The lights pass from house to house

& trains slide by like a smile full of teeth.

I have seen machines eating houses

& stairways walk all by themselves

& elevator doors open and close

& people disappear.

I met one of your fans, though.
