Return From The Country Side Poem by Asher Proschansky
Return From The Country Side
There was a dank odor
When returning from Mohegan
To the tenement in the Bronx
Summer was not yet over
and steam rose from the sidewalk
to offer me a stunted aroma
as a fitting substitute for pine, spruce, and oak
and I couldn't forgive the pavement
for lacking judgement
for its crude statement of equivalence
leaving no doubt who would
govern the next 10 months
in its very first offered scent
