Why I'll never write an Encyclopedia unless I get hired by space aliens

The Dutch
(I believe Dutch)
city of Antwerp
is great. It sounds like
any other city, maybe
except like you're calling someone
an ant and a twerp! Imagine living there.
You'd be an Antwerper, or something. Perhaps
you'd just be an Antwerp. Someday I'd like
to go, but for various other and more subtle,
cultural reasons surely. Well,
those plus the name. It's
such a great name
for a place
where you can go
and listen to all the people,
speaking in their funny little voices!
I consider myself a broad-minded world
traveler, considering the world goes
around and around, and I pretty much
hang on
