Poor old Enola Gay
I.
How?d you like to be named this way
then spend unrest in a widows grave?
Please to Saints, protect her there
she holds the Devil?s name in error
and bears the fury of
diner feet pirates blap quick quack
holstering syrup like a war on hunger
knucklebiting psyicists Bryl cream black
toaster springs underdone blunders
butter beating widow whose daybreak was
An oral tradition
supple and strong
like an ancient Romanian melody
I have memorized your nose and chin
and found the history of scrolls
proudly strung arch angel defiant
in the lonesome high
