"515 Madison Avenue
door to heaven? portal
stopped realities and eternal licentiousness
or at least the jungle of impossible eagerness
your marble is bronze and your lianas elevator cables
swinging from the myth of ascending" (Rhapsody, p.37)
I need to go to New York and experience the city through O'Hara's eyes soon :(
(Side note—a bit random but these poems make me think of Caroline Polachek's lyrics!! LOVE this)
