they often
say hair and
fingernails grow
longer when one
is happily relaxed
they often say hair
and fingernails
grow longer
when one is
lifelessly
dead
my breathing has gone
from a shallow yawn
to something short
of a sigh
once i
stayed on
an isle and
a mirrorless
summer
simmered
passing by
my heart pacer
taking time as fast
as the mules
taking mail
to the cliff
topped town
of Thira
a turtle vs
snail race
sitting in a cafe
sipping a frappe
an hour into
drinking
when
someone's sound
broke my silence
asking how long
i'd grown my
beard
thoughts in Greek
and English speech
which of these
let me take
you down
to
Elysium's
Fields
Form:
18th April 1775 on the strong big-boned mare
'Brown Beauty' may have been her name
borrowed from John Larkin a very good horse
of Narragansett Pacer fame
a copper-bottomed silversmith
Son of Liberty Patriot and Boston-born
riding with Prescott and Dawes toward Lexington
then Concord minutemen in advance to warn
of the British Army's actions
was intercepted in Lincoln but doing his bit
the man had lanterns as the plan
and arranged to have a signal lit
in the Charlestown Old North Church
with one if by land two if by sea
but in those long-gone days
as it was unknown technology
right then and there
it was quite unlikely to see
three if by air
some say vestryman Pulling and sexton Newman
(not a deacon)
as the midnight rider never made it all the way
were the real heroes of the day in fact quite a beacon
(Leeza, my roommate Lisa’s little sister, was off-tha-hook earlier this summer)

There's one giant of a horse that I'd love to own,
even though he seems happy with his present home.
It's not that he has no present sense of belonging,
nor do I see in his eyes a staring spirit of longing.
It's not his great physique nor beautiful towering stature
that makes him the giant prize I would love to capture.
The proven secret of Sampson's strength was in his hair.
His lack of discipline and self control was another affair.
The key to everything Exodus* does or feel is tied to his name.
On the race track, a loud call of his name will set him aflame.
Pacer, speedster, but neither the two ever makes him a winner.
He has a mind of his own, programed and driven to be a finisher.

It will be remember by folks like you and me,
as one of the most dismal failures in history.
It was created as a new division of the Ford Company.
This car became a disaster within the auto industry.
The years of production would amount to less than three.
Following successful sales of the Ford Thunderbird,
a luxury mid-sized car was the latest word.
It was named in honor of Henry Ford’s late son.
In the fall of 1957, manufacturing had begun.
Among the four models introduced was the Pacer.
The three other types were the Citation, Corsair, and Ranger.
They came as two and four-door hardtops, convertible, and wagon.
Disappointing sales would lead to Ford Motor’s chagrin.
More than one factor existed why the division would fail.
Changes and innovations appeared, but to no avail.
Many noted the downturn in the economy.
Others blamed it on poor marketing strategy.
The last of the Edsels rolled off the assembly line,
in late November of 1959.
Perhaps a valuable lesson in the fiasco was learned,
as a big chunk of the American auto industry was burned.
