Chicagoetry: Rainbow BridgeRainbow Bridge "I've never seen an ugly bridge." - Marilyn Monroe I'm fixing to bike my rainbow, a rainbow of concrete, asphalt and steel. like a nosegay or an opera, a non-negotiable rapid of pulverizing lava. transcending gravity and time. Time: And this is my bike. There are many like it man-made clockwork machine of time. Turns a half hour And with the help of some rainbows, I'm like Evel Freakin' Knievel only I'm successful, every day, And this rainbow is just for walkers and riders, those fierce, fat gluttons of fire. The idea of it is one miracle, the fact of it a second. without a car but still in need of food and booze from the 19th century. There is no purer rainbow, (in the sunrise, the silhouette of a pirouette) savor to the fullest this genius of desire, which is so quickly running out. - J.J.
