Gators Leavin' New York
Tattooed pierced sewer alligator
Wearin’ human-skin shoes,
Said, “Run for your f*ckin’ life,
You got nothin’ to lose,
’Cause Armageddon’s comin’ down
And the time’s come to choose,”
But I don’t know who was talkin’,
Was it him or the booze?Gators leavin’ New York
On the Penn Station trains,
I suppose I’d join ’em
If I had any brains.Said, “I’ve been livin’ in sweet slime
For about ninety years,
But I can smell apocalypse,
The vibe’s changed around here,
I’m headin’ for the Jersey swamps,
Time’s come to disappear,
And if you had a lick of sense, son,
You’d get your *ss in gear.”Gators leavin’ New York
On the Penn Station trains,
I suppose I’d join ’em
If I had any brains.Smoke’s curlin’ skyward over London,
And above Cairo, too,
Cops check my knapsack on the 6 line,
Manhattan boys in blue
On a plastique Easter egg hunt,
Don’t know what else to do,
But, h*ll, I call this island home,
Life’s rough, what else is new?Gators leavin’ New York
On the Penn Station trains,
I suppose I’d join ’em
If I had any brains.

Hmmm. This is the first time the piece has appeared on this site. Do you post on Psych Central? Perhaps you saw it there? Atticus

late night/early morning posting with no context I forget not everyone reads my cryptic brainhand....
last night in conversation gator skulls came into the mix and to come home to read that was bizarre as it fit so well with the topic discussed.
a musing not a critique kitty cat.....words are your realm that I visit from time to time to watch their craft.

No worries, Zen. I didn't take it as a criticism. Ta. Atticus
