5920. WELL WHAT'S THE MATTER WITH ME, AL SMITH?

WELL WHAT'S THE MATTER 
WITH ME, AL SMITH?
I took to the streets the day after the fire,
everything was still smoldering along the 
ground. I sought a new Townsend Plan, 
I wanted free money. Look up Fifth Avenue 
yourself, you old fool, and see what all these 
cars will bring : new places to implicate people
 in everything that ever goes wrong.
Minetta Brook goes underground.
-
In these monied canyons, all those bastards with
their pens and pencils shall smart away their loss
and then claim profit. I am left, in the street, and
helpless. I sigh like a camel snorts. It's so sad.
