Compass Songs – The Red Cadillac

 
Compass Songs is an ongoing series of works by poets that I enjoy. Poetry, as the Zen Masters have said, is like a finger pointing to the moon. It speaks the unspeakable.

I had the great  pleasure to meet Regie O’Hare Gibson at the Unitarian Universalist Church of Reading I attend. He performed some of his works at the Martin Luther King Jr. Service.  If you have the opportunity to see him perform, get there.

The Red Cadillac

by Reginald O’Hare Gibson

Willie “Slick” Williams reads William Carlos Williams, then writes a letter to the producers of the TV makeover show Pimp My Ride, explaining why his car should be featured on the program.
