ALL VIOLINS
ALL VIOLINS BROKEN
They showed you to me today
You looked about 70 chic salt & pepper & dashing
You circled around me as though you
would reach out I knew they orchestrated
this because I won’t be here in 46 yrs. to see
you in your dapper glory
I knew too that I was standing between dimensions
And maybe your 70 yr. old self is looking at me
thinking how can this be?
It’s like when I saw my father approaching me
down in the subway an old sick man shuffling along in his slippers
