From the Inside Flap

I CAN BE CROWDED

I can be crowded yet tranquil--
saccharin but sweet.
I am New York.

I can be distant yet approachable--
challenging but rewarding.
I am New York.

I can be disagreeable yet likeable--
argumentative but open-minded.
I am New York.

I can be chilly yet warm--
insensitive but candid.
I am New York.

I can be chaotic yet measured--
extreme but mainstream.
I am New York.

I can be limited yet endless--
have nothing but have everything.
I am New York.

I can be expensive yet economical--
depressed but optimistic.
I am New York.

And always will be.
