Sacrilege In Monterey
Just down the street
From the Gilded Cage
Where James Dean married
Some guy in gold chiffon
The graffiti above the urinal
In the Bull's Eye
Tavern is quite explicit
As we piss away the day
"Sacred cow makes the best hamburger."
Note: “Sacrilege In Monterey,” was first published in Cincinnati Poetry Review, no. 7, Fall 1980, p. 32
Bruce Morton splits his time between Montana and Arizona. His poems have recently appeared in San Pedro River Review, Muddy River Poetry Review, Main Street Rag, Loch Raven Review, Ibbetson Street, and Sin Fronteras/Writers Without Border. He was formerly Dean of Libraries at Montana State University.
