And now that place is gone. And the prostitutes are gone. Dead, moved out, pushed aside, forced west, to the edges by the highways,
under the tunnels, away from the lights, the crowds, the tourists, and the real money, which is now Times Square.
Sometimes I still go there, but I feel nothing for the place. The sex is gone. The colors are gone. I can't seem to smell anything, and nothing shines.
