9455. MADCAP GONDOLIER

MADCAP GONDOLIER
He was doing 90 in that bathtub of
grime you call a canal  -  Venetian
madness no less than happy. All
those lousy songs wrapped up in
a rag. Over there, on that bridge.
everyone stares at the hag  -  she
too is a local occurrence, out there 
almost every day begging coins.
She sings too, yes, but if you know
her Italian, they're all filthy songs.
