© Oliverio Andy's Gang (2006) #52 is here. |
The year was Naught Six
I was westward-bound
returning to my next
California hometown
Two years north
of being fifty-five
it was on to Long Beach:
a math career to revive
There was a road in Texas
named for Andy Devine
I raised my Kodak
to the sky with
its cloud line
At fifty-seven,
a slice of heaven...

I couldn't help but notice the profile of Kurt Vonnegut in that sky,
below which was a piece of the fabled Route 66.
