Stuyvesantowne

Across the River, West 'tis that at the cliffs & clefts of Victoria above blackish waters slick as Legislation, of Verrazzano & not-so-merried ferries, the promontory sits of visage, resplendented of red deer & red bear & white Eagles' scat from Lady Liberty! Why, in the glare of where, opossum & red squirrel, vied in-passioned imposters of small virtue in deed sought, wrought of purloin for some vertu & bijouterie for Manhattan! (The Chief Islander) - so the Mythic goes! But hey!, it's up-on the BigScreen, now playin' @ The Bijou, & in the dutri-plexes & plexes of plexiglasse & MegaPlexes of Tribeca, in the Tri-boros+2... Avaunt! Above Verrazzano visage tramontane, there! the Filth & Flair of City fare, miasma which got us into insouciant Dutch!
