PROLOGUE
Coals.cones and canals
with cottages make boulevards
Spaniards,Vieux Carre and French Quarter
NewOrleans in a bowl below sea level
She is our Venice
Let the levee live in the river or lake
to write with the lines of the earth
on gulf,river and lake
in sweet cane or dark coal
Canals make boulevards
Scent of crescent with borders and banks
tent on crescent
we build by crystal blowing
Canals make boulevards
NEW ORLEANS
