Poetry: Remarkable

by Borek Grotevant

JACK


Used to be in Lowell

now its NeverNeverLand

The hang outs where Jack used to

frequent

Kerouac the first rap artist

with or without the mic

North Beach

San Fran in the Fifties

No one did the spoken word

better

I see my youngest son reading

On the Road

the legacy continues

cross generational

bebop

treetop

soda pop

I can't get enough of that

natural prose

City Lights

keeps the lamp burning

ain't nothin like it

ain't nothin like it

I wait for the next generation

to step

up

to tell it

like it is

like it was

remarkable

it

certainly

is
