An alien oozed forth from a streetcar
Undulating into the nearest bar --
Blinked his green eyes
And what a surprise --
Ordered vodka on the rocks of a Star
the grass is greener
on the other side
of
the otherworldly sidewalk
where
the glass harmonica is grassier
where
the grass doesn't grow
on
a busy streetcar named
apathy
His name does noy ring a bell
But,good acting helped his film's sell-
Good looks were never his..
Though always worth his hire,
Winning an oscar,with Streetcar named Desire
Tribute To Karl Malden (1912-2009) One of the best of Hollywood's supporting actors
Late, legendary American method actor, Marlon Brando
His piercing scream of "Stella!" reached a crescendo...
In "Streetcar Named Desire." A supernova in his prime
Internationally hailed as "The greatest actor of all time"
It was something
So many words
It rattled on
Like a streetcar
And it was harsh too
It really picked things apart
It made Howl
Seem like a squeak
I can't remember
Who wrote it
I think
It was some guy
From Great Britain
All I remember is that
It was the longest
The harshest
The meanest poem
Ever written

Anna called her mother today
Out of the blue and the pink
To talk about something new
A quick story telling - like Madonna
About a passionate drunken kiss
With her roommate one night
On a streetcar not named desire
She described the kiss to her mother
In grand and lengthy romantic detail
What it felt like to kiss a woman
Knowing full well that the encounter
Meant nothing to her
As he waited for the streetcar
that he had waited for so many times before
at this very spot
he thought
the weather is so dreary
but more ,
undeniable
that for a millisecond
silent rain
carried a silent pain
that hope could not sooth
and the streetcar would never carry away
the loss he held
where love once dwelled
he thought
self absorbed
in the blink of an eye
the street car appeared.
"I have always depended on the kindness of strangers." A Streetcar Named Desire, 1951
KINDNESS OF STRANGERS - KIB
Rainbow-yarn hospitality
Opened to me their door.
Snowy boots laid aside,
Warm blanket and fresh apple pie.
Servants of God, rapport,
Under his snow-dove wing.

Oh dear one, for many years we have hurt and hugged.
Brought up the spears of contention and have been mugged.
Could I have been the one to compose your sorrow?
I guess time will tell when we reach that tomorrow.
The premise was so impressively constructed.
Yet like a streetcar that was poorly conducted.
Placed upon a pedestal that was bound to fall.
Oh dear one, how I long for thy spirit to call!

A flash the first strike, truth builds fantasy;
A spell nothing short of spectacular;
With a gentle word you became a shove;
I began to recite a silent plea,
racing the night upon desire’s streetcar
on a ride I could not gain control of;
Your eyes a gateway to believing now;
The still of amethyst and fading stars
painted blush and shy sunrise up above;
Softly you whispered to me ‘I know how
to love’ .
