a smile all the way from bloomington

these cars are stacked up
somewhere in bloomington
abrahamland
where a smile
brought rainy skies
in a way
that was as good as it gets
for telephones
anyway


a bronze of abraham
sits on a bench
unprotected
outside the museum
waiting for
a photo op.

let's hope a descendant
of john wilkes somebody
doesn't get
the grafitti bug
or worse,

a terrorist itch.
