The Tale of Two Patricks
My father was born,
Late on the eve of St. Patrick’s Day,
Inspiring nurses to insist the babe’s name be Patrick,

When my parents had their first son,

Little Miss Sure Shot Gains A Namesake

Rhinestones and rawhide
Prancing horses and the dream
Of the Old Wild West;
Dazzling the Old World crowd:
6 shots through a card tossed in the air,
Ash shot off the Kaiser's cigarette -

"The Children's Hour," Franklin D. called it,
putting his stamp on that ceremony, and, so,
we come together, bird, and beast: a yappy

The Story
This is my story, my telling.
It was a Monday morning
in a time that never existed.
In a past that was fictional
until it was revealed as a plot

nevertheless it became this yesterday,
this legend...

Premium Member I Saw a Sundrop: Constanza
I saw a sundrop in a field,
a daffodil to be exact,
