I chose the poem "Manhattan" by Joseph Aprile because it represents the tolerance and diversity of Manhattan and all of New York.The poem has creative and poetic language describing the sounds and sights of Manhattan.It has a simplistic list like format that makes it interesting to read. The poem uses sentence structures like newspaper headlines and little one sentence scenes.
The poem also describes the state of mind of new york.Both those visiting like the poems author and the people that live in it.The poem is fairly un opinionated and an accurate portrayal of the city we live in.
