Stetson, Il Miglior Fabricator

Easy does it, 
My discerning amigo— 
Don’t you dare think that 
 
Once you get the hang of it, 
You’re free to stick another feather 
In your hat and straightaway
 
Hang it up—methinks you must 
First learn the difference between 
A fedora and a terza rima, 
 
What make you of that?

Building for the Future: One Less Vacant Lot


At this point, I don’t know 

What is more edifying—looking 
At photos of the World Trade Center 
Before and after 9/11 or reading 
Eliot’s Wasteland for the nth time— 

Any way you look at it, 
It looks like we’re long past 
The point of no return 
On our investment.
