20th century New York City,
Mistaken memories of mediaeval Manhattan,
When the Beastie Boys lived in LA,
Pre-punk, Proto-punk, K-punk,
Not really A-Punk, junk, Big Muff,
Hoboken, Nutley, Yonkers, Cos Cob,
The five towns, the five families,
Sisters of Mercy, Brother Lawrence,
Book of Hours, Russian icons,
Sand Mandalas, Natarajas,
Hex Sign barns, Ando churches,
Whirling dervishes, Psychedelic Gershwin,
Wire, Plain Jane indie, David Axelrod,
Steven Siegel, New Wave hot dogs,
Old World elegance, The RZA, The GZA,
Old Dirty Bastard, Inspectach Deck,
Raekwon the Chef, U-God, Ghostface Killah,
And … M E T H O D M A N,
Ball hogs, Sandhogs,
And the greatest construction project
In the history of Western Civilization.
