riff on a theme from Howl, I.
by Madeline LambThe first alarm clock fell
in 1956,
& since have rained,
reigned over us
from birth, like law
bashing our heads like her officers!
We cry:
"Eli, eli, lama sabachthani?"
Eloi, Eloi, each ash
a ring of meaning memorized
and Our Ballot for nothing!
we still live mortal,
still wound time. 08/07/2010 Posted on 08/07/2010
