Gong Clangs Siren Howls
THE GREAT FIGURE
William Carlos Williams
Among the rain
and lights
I saw the figure 5
in gold
on a red
fire truck
moving
tense
unheeded
to gong clangs
siren howls
and wheels rumbling
through the dark city

ReplyDeleteFor those outside the joke: a print of the above was just about the only non-Beatles or non-Dead art hanging in my first apartment, shared with eventual first wife Bluebird. Damn, acid was fun.
