I had a dim idea that if I walked the streets of New York all night something of the city's mystery and magnificence might rub off on to me.
I know New York and if you walk around all night, something might rub off on you, but it won't be something you like. Better just walk around during the day and enjoy from the room at night 
hahahaha it's just a poem man
I thought, but since you're soo smart, sometimes it's hard to tell 
hahaha naaah
