For a time in the past
Everything must be harsh and rough
Tough and rumble harsh and dangerous
Asphalt smoked with mixture of coquina’s grit
A fiery pennant arose clothed in flame
Hendrix’s guitar afire
Arimanes seated in a globe of flame
Sergio Leone made the sun
Broil over the bad and the ugly
And expose the good as not so good
Full-grown boys embraced
To show how tough they were
Grownup girls rumbled for kisses
Eyes filled with sand
The speaker towers swayed ominously
Awash in applause
