No Special Roses Poem by Robert Rorabeck

No Special Roses



I have no special roses
Or anywhere else where I can move—
The acolytes pantomime
The stars as the stewardesses leap across
The oceans in the airplanes:
Everything seems to be okay,
But who am I to guess:
I think of her lips in shanghai—
Or the forgotten parks of our marriage,
As the bones get ready to dance
As they do again and again.
