years ago in dallas, texas lee harvey oswald
perched in a book depository window
waiting.
across the lawn was lyndon baines johnson,
vice-president,
patriot,
marksman.
crouching in the hot sun.
when the squib went off,
kennedy held his breath
for three days.
jackie was inconsolable.
ladybird brought her a new pink hat
like a miniature pillbox.
later, he woke up in a small villa
somewhere in south america
and marilyn monroe got away as soon as she could.
