Another Day In Nyc

Cars, pedestrians stores 
    The air is not so clean here 
   But there are some great people here 
   People who call it "Zoo York"
are wrong 
Once my life was saved by a stranger here 
Yes, the place still exists 
Yes, it has a heart 
As I sit here in in Dunkin Doughnuts 
   writing 
I see a grandmother with her infant 
I see people drinking caffeinated beverages 
Just another day in the Big apple 
Along with 8 million others 
Some of who write poetry
