Elvis Reinvents Television Poem by Michael Waterson

Elvis Reinvents Television



The quiet boy from Tupelo
set tubes aglow with cotton-pickin’
hound dog caterwaul,
how he slung that guitar
they say he could barely play
like a shotgun.

The way he rolled
those hips black-and-white,
you could tell
color was coming.
