15,780. 'HOW DO I GET TO ANGER?'

'HOW DO I GET TO ANGER?'
Make a left at annoyance, but why
do you want to go there anyhow?
There's nothing there but grief and
anger, and you'll make enemies out 
of every friend you may even have 
had. Icicles in the sky, point upward.
-
That's what these skyscrapers in the
bitter cold look like to me. New York
City's got the vapors, and every taxi
is running cold. In the Summer, all
these same places  -  air-conditioned
to 40 degrees  -  keep their front doors
opened to cool the sidewalk passers.
Now, in the opposite direction as it
were, everything's keep closed up 
and tight and no one wants you
around at night : not to linger
and not to sleep. 'Get out of the
doorway, you lousy creep.'
