The Long Golden Road

"A CRISIS IS
AN OPPORTUNITY!"
she wrote to
herself
before
she went out the window.

I will go to the City,
hang my portrait on the emerald bricks,
from the ruby scaffolds of the religious houses,
and proceed to get strung out
like a high wire act above the miniature crowd

like Dorothy
and her long, golden road.
