Poem- "Celebrity Passing History"

Mirror

Celebrity Passing History
Specular reflections bounce off the wabash
in holy echoes of grazing mirrors,
Yet star attractions through light signals live kings of golfsports
in worn protective gears.





*Here I mix science with golf, using second cousin words to illustrate beauty in magnitude.  Beat that, Aristotle and Twain!  A “wabash” is shining water and mirrors are feeding off the light, in my mind.  You’ll find the phrase “star attraction” in the movie “Space Jam” which uses new language as anyone concerned with cultures is supposed to.
