Liquidation of a Dream
The Wizard: Oh, you liquidated her, eh? Very Resourceful.
(Quote from 1939 The Wizard of Oz)
LIQUIDATION OF A DREAM
Oz dreamt Dorothy —
waters never melted witch
monkeys buzz like flies
the trio ne’er met —
no brain, heart nor courage found
tears of rusted tin
ruby nor silver
slippers colorize the land
— monochrome wizard
monotone munchkins
slaves to the emerald sky
— Glinda’s been vanquished
