Golden Gate Bridge

I am global, psychic, sexed-DEATH:

My thirst is what it is.

 

On me, bumper to bumper

With lights crystal I feel good about myself.

 

I shall as myself square away these I stand upon

Golden and damned

Which sailors sail beneath:

SITTING HERE ON THE PACIFIC I SAW WAR ONCE

 

Some days I can be cross-legged

And appear to join the swimmers

And swim naked.

 

I take everything and sleep with it:

THEY ADMIRE MY LENGTH

Named by these noises and lights,

I AM VERMILION

 

Each design I first made and then rejected.

 

And all the time I celebrate,

 

Putting the finishing and finishing to my parable.

 

Riding about, including memory,

People are astounded by my beauty,

My width and touch even those who exit up.

 

For you, San Andreas, I wait,

 

A light only I know that directs.

 

Your comings and goings,

 

Standing in the sun lit.

 

And when you do, I plan to walk right out.
