My Impersonation Of A Poem By John Updike

________________________________________________________________________________________________


My son's bicycle is
in the driveway
with a flat tire
but the air pump
is in the trunk
of his mother's car

The 1968 Red Corvette
 was part
of the divorce settlement

    I am no world class authority on Poetry
    but I will state that if there was ever a poet
    who could pinpoint the mundane or esoterica
    of Suburbia ... it would be JOHN UPDIKE
