Having—already attended
the goddamn
thing this far—I thought;
might
as well lower
your rented ear
down
to this—American ground
and just accept—right here
the final
verdict as rendered.
It's not as if—The Dream
is over—
I heard—then waited
for
the better
part
of an hour
before finally appending—on my own
as I rose
with a smirk
it's more like—
the dream is ended.
