By Gosh. By Gee. By Whiz.
And the Cambridge Women
dispense Pez candys.
Only on the Fourth of July
as they sit circling the yard.
I strictly believe in the belief
that we are all human and all of us
are humane, or so I once thought
in my upper-class neighborhood as a child.
And boy was I surprised to find that the brain
did not all think the same. And some was a duzzie.
Never trust the inherent logic that you assume
in another man. But the Cambridge Ladies and the fireworks
right after 9:00 and the cameras faceless –
where free will is preempted by birth.
Just sayin.
