Waring Cuney, "True Love" (1927)
Much more true
Than angel's love;
For angels love in heaven
Where a thousand harps
Are playing
She loves in a tenement
Where the only music
She hears
Is the cry of street car brakes
And the toot of automobile horns
And the drip of a kitchen spigot
All day.
Her love is true I know.
