Geskle: “New York”

Not a song about falling in love, not a song about falling out of love. Geskle has written a sign about the distance between two people on the Worcester-to-NYC circuit, and the stumbling blocks between connecting. It’s a melancholy love letter to Wormtown at the end of the day because it’s the city’s embrace to which the protagonist of the song returns. Will the hometown return the love? Sure, why not. Home of the Worcester Whirlwind, Major Taylor, the African-American cyclist who took the world by storm at the turn of the 20th century.
