HEY, WE RING
THE HANDBELLS
Mainstays, you and I, and a hundred
more, of this fixture'd crowd; though
we stand alone they see us all as one.
I stand aside the doorway as you roll
another in : wheeled cart, round tires,
small gasoline engine. I think we're
on to something. Ring the bells,
oh carolier.
-
Have you ever seen a doomed man
trying to smile? It hurts just knowing
he hurts : Last meal, final words, a
message to leave behind; that grunt,
and the call, 'Let's do it!'
