Manhattan MAG
Bright-eyed behemoths
Gleaming in the morningsun
Beaming beacons across
The blue expanse around them
Wondrousbeasts of stone, cable, and steel
Standing tall,
Spanning the shimmeringblueness with
Their massive, ancient legs
Glistening giantsstand
Loyal sentinels at their posts
Staring down majestically
At thecenter,
At the green valley below
This is the exalted island
Ofsteel-framed adventure
And unbounded thrill,
Manhattan.
