Film star Dennis this is not
Edward Hopper Appliquè
Sports a deep sea dive brush play
Pulsing light and shadow blodgets
over diners in Chop Suey
from that place and times yanked out
a marmelade Kablooey
Gruffly puffing cigarettes
Tapping mystic slats
characters on dingy platform
sporting porkpie hats
Trumpeting the sketchiest of
sketchy urban scenes
Nighthawks blasts into some cloud
a storybook of Dreams
Carving clever sculptures
the snappiest of ways
a twisty track through Nyack
the Cape Ann shore line sways
A glow in Hopper’s windswept spray
plasticene daubs remind
Coast the mind blowingly vast
azure sea of Time
