LONG-TERM RESIDENT

 

Every few centuries Sobek renews

His license to be a crocodile. If being a god

Becomes impossible, he'll still be able

To make a living. He finds New York cold

Though he's been here for years. 

Having nowhere else to be an hour

After the sun's left its posts

I see him spellbound by a Christmas window 

Watching automatons repeat themselves endlessly.
