New York

I enjoyed this poem. It was true about what goes on in New York and how people their act. The tone of the poem was trueful. The author wrote the poem to explain what happens in New York.

One line i thought was interesting was, "They talk of junkies, muggings, dirt, and noise." This line shows that this is what people think of when they think of New York. This is an image that pops into peoples heads. It is ironic because it is one of the most important buisness cities but at the same time has muggings, dirt, etc.
Another line i chose was "Look at the way New Yorkers walk down the street. It says,I don't care." I agree with this line becuase this is how people act in New York. After visiting New York many times, this statement is true. People walk the streets like they don't care about anyone but only for themselves. Those people are what makes New York unique. I thought this poem was very good and talks about the real things that happen in New York.
