Haiku Series on Moving to NYC

lease, deposit, keys
mean shit with scumbag NY
real estate agents


twelve hundred for this?
credit report, DNA
hey, sellers' market


can't see the city
as a whole right away, or
surely you will drown


sussing the new hood
finally, enough menus
now it feels like home


invest in learning
the whole subway map by heart
it pays off big-time


stop it with the damn
straws, napkins, and a bag for
a roll of breath mints
