merry-go-round

brisk arrival
boxcars full
empty boxcars
brisk return

-2-

the last curtain call

applause begins
as in she strides
shining like the sun 
happy play
actor glows
brick pipe grimy
a smokey end

-3-
 
a future thought

crowded spaceship
the quick escape
forgotten suitcase
hounds will follow

rodney vanworth



-4- 

the story of millions

told in a book
then another
and another
stacks of books
rooms of books
libraries of books
billions of indented paragrahs

here are twentynine words

the nazis told the people
you are going to a work camp
be at the train station tomorrow
once they boarded
the doors were locked
there was no escape

twentnine words.

the story of millions



rodney vanworth
