As the engines grate.

Peace at last- onboard!...

The Flowers In My Window Box
the flowers in my window box died
and I sent their remains in the box
to a landfill on Staten Island
I was thinking about

The Bronx is familiar with that infamous sound.
The boys in pinstripes have endured many a round.
