George Washington Bridge,
Major Deegan Expressway,
Triboro Bridge.

Wait.
The Triboro Bridge has been re-named,
“RFK”, for Robert F. Kennedy.

OK, I have no problem
with re-naming bridges,
and no problem with
Robert F. Kennedy.

But, why re-name the, “Triboro”?
Its name says it all
multiple points of entry and exit:
Manhattan, The Bronx, Queens.

So, how do novice
and veteran travelers
know that “RFK”
has multiple points?

Oh, by the way, “RFK” leads to “JFK”.

Anyway, I set in my brain
the mnemonic, “RFK”,
to remind myself of the bridge
and its connections:

R-Ranhattan
F-The Fronx
K-Kuh-weens.
