Bank shot
and afro hair braiding is gone for good on 125th
the Jamaican shaman sisters
replaced with washington mutual brochure balloon giveaways
and no fee loitering, 25 years there and 25 cent returned checks
and there are no shots being fired
hybrid Jew Italian Irish Latino half black con artists
running races that have already been decided
and another Chase in place of that space
where there once was cafe con lecher at 3am
and there are no ways to stop
hybrid architecture 666 square feet of unmanned teller booths here for you
all for you, easy for you, simple for you, as you take a shave in a line gone mad
and the citiswank is gone and it's a good thing
the bum says I quit on this corner
there is always Vegas and AC, the beacons of what we have left,
horses and chips, online poker and microchips
in my music spot that is gone to simple charming Commerce
and the seizure under our noses and the seizure in the plain view of the camera
and the all night bagels of Ny have become holy ghosts
the teenagers too young to remember the real colors of Gotham
Bank of America will fund this day to the tilt
1.5 a year more neighborhood interest and things will get better
and there are no shots being taken
there is only withdrawals from the addiction to our freedom
deposits built up like barnacles in a pool hall gone to Capital One
PNC - stands for - People Never Care
Please Not (our) City
