Shakespeare's Monkeys

Infinite Monkeys. Infinite Typewriters.

More in Release the Hounds

from the bridge on school street

on the river where the brown boy sinks his line

for carp and the adulation of his grandfather
i remember such tans on my pale white skin
and sunsets mourning my half-spent youth

nearby the water drops 3 meters, maybe
more after a thick july thunder or an angry march
in the growl of white mountains

the boy glances at me and half-nods, fearless
though I am large and hairy, possibly more evil
than any one he has ever met,

and smiles.

I smile back,"Good luck."
