A Short Unrevised Poem

Raining today in the big apple Yes, this metropolis is still here Despite the fact that we have been attacked Yes, the masses of people still long to visit this "Baghdad on the Hudson" as O.Henry named it It is not Paris, Tel Aviv or London But it is the place I call home Personally I think this city will survive ,flourish and grow
