HERE
Some say it is a ghost town
some say it's quiet and they like it that way...
others say it is dried up and dead,
past glories spent.
It is clean. There is not much litter.
People are friendly. There are a few good restaurants,
there is music, low rent.
So where are the artists you lament?
We are here -
WE ARE HERE...
HAVE NO FEAR.
