UNTITLED
In
the Process of Interpreting
Experience I See
a skating rink of light,
Ann Southern,
her snowy legs
sidestepping love's
soft focus glow
in a glaze of bulbs .
What's her plight?
The plot drawls on.
Cesar Romero at dawn
or Ricardo Montalban?
She gets
a Brazilian Millionaire
and has her love gold-lined
with Carmen Miranda
for dance and song.
Shboom Mama.
Moral: Ann Southerns don't marry poor Brazilians
don't marry poor Brazilians
poor Brazilians
