John Gamache!

you look like Lawrence Ferlinghetti!

like John Cage looked like John Havlicek

like Gina Lollobrigida looked during

Marcello Mastroianni’s wet dream

like a wayward saint dodging Purgatory

like a picture painter whose nerves are tamed

by the glass of a young dry red.

why you came to mind this afternoon

I'll probably never know.

the process is but my two cents worth

during the day-to-day order of things.
