city blues

victor dyck 1955 (cinncinatti)



in a big city you have to keep a third eye to keep your money or your girlfriend be as sly and cunning as a fox brave as a lion slither through the crowded subway or bus door like a snake there are too many temptations
in the city like nudes picture shows drugs
