Visions of Newport 1965

I dream of you

in the arms
of the cowherd boy

under a grand piano
in a Philadelphia mansion.

What mysteries do you see:

the Giant Poodle
abyss of enlightenment

eighty-eight keys
set to Shostakovich?

The sacrament of Leary

a lifetime
spent scrying

poker table diamonds
from the safety of pews.
