Carradine

Oh wondering monk
Caucasian playing Asian in
seventies TV, will
you ever find your brother?

Searching, searching, America.

How is it you were found
by a cleaning lady in Thailand
a cord around your neck
face gone blue to death
auto-erotic asphyxia
to teach the grasshopper
how to finally snatch
the pebble from the handin time for you to leave.

Brian Allen Carr writes and lives in the Rio Grande Valley of Texas.
