Cracks in The Sidewalk - A Response to William Carlos Williams
Cracks in the Sidewalk
nothing depends
upon
cracks in the
sidewalk
jumped on by
masochists
with matricidal
tendencies.

Author's Note: An entirely inappropriate response to nearly and hour of gushing lecture time spent on The Red Wheel Barrow by William Carlos Willams. A poem of grace, beauty and compact simplicity, but hard to endure on a 90 degree day in an American Lit Survey Course with 800 pages, 300 poems and less than 3 weeks to go before the final. Published in several places it is part of the unpublished Broken Wheelbarrow Anthology that I hope may someday come to press. I thank The Peter Files for this exposure. Comments and encouragement welcome.

I am so glad that this work of poetry encouraged another, although it seems to be quite outside the box.
