Possibly
Buster found what others lost,
mostly in memory.
Liz the Librarian, old-fashioned
spectacles...the Smear.
Spouted off
countries and capitals.
Until Buster knew some she didn’t.
Of course, she had a fuller persona
amid other librarians.
Fun in a different way.
Do we have serious selves?
Or merely selves?
And isn’t that the most serious question
being asked today?
Anywhere? By anyone?

The Irish Washerwoman--Not
Well...never mind her!
For Local Color nowadays,
we've got Death.
Goddammit! I've washed
my hands!
Enough is never enough!
Can I be washed enough?
In the blood of the Lamb?
--or what have you?
Most definitely!
MOST!
