TOKYO
(Fuck You, Rex Reed)

CEE

Watching an old Dick Cavett Show
From that better world that spat out Today,
Rex Reed as Oscar critic
Morris the Cat as touch-me-not
Fine, shug, you didn’t like Duke Wayne?
Well, I’m sure he loved the fuck out of You,
But, what’s with the random pooping on
Red Buttons in Sayonara?
Did it ever occur to you,
In midst of your hausfrau hissies,
That that Camelot exists for everyone,
The one brief, shining corn kernel of possibility
Head and shoulders above
Any other hunk of a “make the doughnuts” life,
Did this never occur? Or did it occur that
By the time such sweet, quiet, East-based intimacy
And its Otherness be allowed You
Without so much as a “pass the salt”,
You’d be an artifact
Of a better world that spat out a Today
Which is for Others
Not yourself
Not cleanly
Sorry social mores didn’t work out for you, Rex
Sayonara
