MISTER DUCK (R&R) [04/04/10]
you and me against the world / world
about to end
by the neck, under netting,
you become our blustery best
abroad—an antic-frantic
anger, a guileless smile, the
scene-stealing wise-crack
ing, voice-cracking—never
as worldly as the wabbit,
but every bit as dangerous.
even when it's your blood,
red and Pollocked around
those whisperthin hostel walls,
a half a hostile world away,
before you settle your bill
back into place and slip back
into our dreams again.
