An observatory on the 100th floor of 1 World Trade Center is nearing completion. --news item
A panoramic view of New York
Is coming shortly--you're in lork (er, luck)
Admission will be democratic,
Based on rules that are emphatic
With prices ranging high to low,
Depending not on how high you go
But on the condition of the weather
Up above and regions nether.
All folks will ride to the 100th floor,
Where the observatory waits in store.
They'll pay a measly 25 bucks
If rain is falling on man and ducks;
Should there be clouds above Manhattan,
It's 45, P.M. or matin;
On perfect picture-postcard days
The fortunate sight-seer pays
For views and hues in glowing colors--
65 premium dollars.
Gotham seen from high in the clouds--
On rainy days, you'll avoid street crowds!
