85...New York Minute III; Creatures Without Tails

Alarm bells ring! Off and running,
Fashionably late as usual.
New York's rat race begins
Above city sidewalks "beautiful".

As those below scurry about
Unabated to and fro;
Creatures without tails above,
And creatures with tails below.

We look better, we dress better.
They multiply, survive and thrive;
Visit the best restaurants,
Live in the best buildings at times.

We eat better, we dance better.
Perfectly gross in many ways.
We ride taxis and limousines,
But they own and ride the subways.
