The Big Apple
doesn’t smell like an apple after all.

In fact,
Prepare for your nose to go through
a slight culture shock.

Say goodbye to the waft of pencil shavings that
take residence in your high school’s hallways.

Wave hello to the global warming minions that
swirl around in taxi exhaust.

If you stick around awhile, the scent of greasy hot dogs
garbage-filled alleys will be as familiar as the sweat-soaked
clothes that inhabit your old locker room.

Moving to the city is like a roller coaster for your nostrils.

Sniff the Big Apple.
What does it smell like to you?
