In the City:
Knowledge is merely lawful prejudice.

We repeat: You are NOT a fit subject for restoration.

It's usually the one with the least poetic nature who is the first to say,
“Okay, weld that sucker.”

If you’re going to live in City consciousness,
at least clean your streets as often as they do.

The unnaturally stable ARE unnatural.

The other night, out near that area between the City limits sign and the bushes,
I heard someone singing this little ditty,

“I have this little friend,
who lives around the bend,
and I go to see him,
every now and then."
