Spaghetti straps,
Mammary paps,
Ugly shorts that tourists sport,
New Orleans
Voodoo memes,
BDSM themes,
Cemeteries make one wary,
New Orly-anze.
Hot and muggy,
Somewhat thuggy,
Bourbon Street’s dark-side treat,
New Owl-ins
Crawfish dishes,
X’s for wishes,
Cryptic Marie’s repository,
N’awlins
Rice and vampires,
Streetcars named Desire,
Tennesse Williams' fame.
Charles Bukwoski,
'N Faulkner's House key,
Clemens marked the twain.
Where?
Down in New Orlains.
