Oh! To Be Cool!
First proclaim it!
Yourself to be cool. And in fact
it exudes from your pores like leather aftershave.
Hum some Dylan
that remind of worn Levi Jeans,
warm rock and roll and the ‘no moss’ gathering stone.
Pretend you know
whatever it is that it means
to be an urban nomad, conductor of blues.
Now sweep through towns
disguised as trouble and tell them:
That Cool is the middle name you seldom go by.
