The Heroes Are Dead

The heroes are dead

And to whom do I turn
robbed of the monarchs
when will my sentence
of estrangement end

She was a cobweb
did the spider create her?
Something too fragile
for soil so brutal

Where have you gone, Joe DiMaggio?

In a whisper
I can no longer discern
this collective
mirage from the truth

For MM and JD, MAG and BAG, and other such souls
