Hot Dogs a New York Tale

Hot Dogs A New York Tale

There once lived a Mayor named Di Blasio,
Who had steamy, hot desires for Ocasio!
In an effort to woo her and all health crackpots, too, 
He pulled out his very lengthy political lance.

"Ah, Divine Maiden, I want you all for my own.
For only this for you will I do,
I am deporting all unhealthy, evil hot dogs to
France."
Maiden Ocasio in gratitude fell to her feet.

So Nathan's went out of business!
Oh how greatly, the New Yorkers wept!
Said she: "The world will indeed be Green!
You and I will be King and Queen..
No cows, no cars, no steel buildings
Divinely, so peachy-clean!"

Glad you liked it. thank you. Clinton as I recall was into cigars, what an oinker. I never will understand why he's still so popular. Di Blasio is a fruitcake, The NYPD hate him, they turn their backs to him Well, just glad you liked the poem. Never put a bawdy one on line before. ))) Panagiota
