10,557. PATTI SMITH

PATTI SMITH
I know a lot about nothing and
a little about everything. Well,
I think that suffices, and it's all
in how you say it. Window dressing
now for nothing of sense. Hence.
Follow me down to where the
prairie blows in. Contrails above
and turquoise birds and adobe huts.
-
The mild-mannered reporter 
otherwise disguised as Clark Kent, 
mild-mannered reporter for a great
 metropolitan newspaper... Yes, yes
and wonder of it all. I knew him when.
-
I'm taking the train to Rockaway Beach,
to go and see Patti Smith and have a
bungalow feast where what counts for
the most are truth, justice, and, and...
the American Way : that glimmer
of a hairpin turn in the sea-sky of 
of a beach-front tern.
