ANOTHER FRANK SINATRA POEM
Kurt Nimmo
it is
said that
when Woody Allen
left Mia
for that adopted
daughter
Frank Sinatra
offered
to have his legs
broken
no word
on what Woody
thought
of it
though
more than likely
it was just
theatrics
in a small circle
of excessively
self-
indulgent
famous
rich people
and it is
really too bad
old Frank
is dead now
because
we sure
could use
a few legs broken
around here
as
gang-bangers
in the hood
fire
their 9mm
Glocks
indiscriminately
at the threat
of mid-
night shadows
and
do their
damnedest
to imitate
Frank
the gangster
in
late 90s
fashion
