"It's about words, and words are all I have…"

JAMES DEAN IS DEAD

JAMES DEAN  IS  DEAD    AIN’T  WE  ALL*

The CN Tower rodlike rising

to the heavens   Winter flies

dropping    like rain

 

Women coo in the lounge

chandelier glistens  dust mites   weep

 

Central heating stifles room

with ugly green art    An oasis

for   rude citydwellers

 

How could they have killed

the Prodigal son?  TV melodrama

wreaks havoc   Spring will never   come

Winter 2013       *Kerouac 1956
