Where do the Dutch live now?
Harlem?
Not.
Stuyvesant Town?
Not.
Dutch Hills in Queens?
Not.
They have streets and highways named after them:
Gansevoort
The Bowery
Van Dam
Schermerhorn
The Van Wyck Expressway.
Do little Dutch girls jump double-dutch on Dyckman Street?
The Dutch Elms in Central Park,
Did they come through the Holland Tunnel?
Not.
I hear there are Pennsylvania Dutch
But the New York Dutch,
Where have they gone?
Where do they eat?
I see the Jewish delis, the bodegas, the pizza parlors, the taco stands, the soul food restaurants, the Irish pubs, the German beer gardens, the Halal hot dog stands.
But where do the Dutch eat? Have they all starved?
