What if the statue of liberty were reinvented?

Would it hold a hot dog?

Would we be able to see it in the fog?

Would it be wearing a dress

Would it be fashionable to impress?

Would it look like a Woman?

Would it look like someone

hailing a yellow cab?

Would it still be holding a tab?

Or would it be listening to an ipod

would we even find that odd?

Would it be crowded by other statues

on the cross town bus

trying to ignore all of us?

Would it be taller than

the Brooklyn Bridge?

Would it have a bronze image?

Would it have a diamond crown

Could it see from downtown?

Would it speak Spanish, Russian,

Japanese and Portuguese?
