FOOTBALL 771030/ CAPE COD
By JC STREET © 2004
The old one
leans on the bar
taken with the palsy
Winsome the light
on her shaking face
bent
to the cocktail straw
The crowd at the TV
set
set-to
this set-to, Oakland 17,
Denver 0
The child chuckle-crying
He must have bet
on Denver,
I whispered to his mother
--30—
(written at Bert’s Place, Cape Cod, October 30, 1977 over a Heineken and sickening buttered lobster—Robin was a CCU nurse at Peter Bent Brigham in Bawstun – a dab hand at rescusitation—where is she now—her thin hard face with a Marlboro stuck in her lefthand mouth and the red tide of her hair—tumbling over her shoulders—her tight white childbody the texture of netsuke—carrying me back to the car and tucking me in for the ride back to Dedham—and that was BEFORE she got the Camaro)

Tathagataalmost 20 years agothe lobster on the Cape?
I think it was the heineken that put you off it.
next time have it with a Bass draft.
I admire your work immensely.
You have a lyrical almost spellbinding use of phrases and language
A very gifted writer Sir
thank you
