AVENUE OF THE SPHINXES

the sidewalks of Palm Beach

reveal the future of urban living


designs from Atlantis

sprout up filling


every empty space

along wide palm tree laden


streets that resemble

a Hollywood set designer's idea


of some Avenue of the Sphinxes

from Egypt which had no known


antiquity as if neon kitsch

were a realized vision of the god


I'm glad I'm just passing through

my dream cannot acknowledge a candy-colored paradise
