CONSOLATIONS

 

The ghost of Former Governor Thomas E. Dewey

Occasionally turns up in my dreams not because

He's fond of me -- we get along-- or because he has some 

Message he wishes to impart. He's bored and the dreams

He wishes to be in are closed to him. I tell him

To take heart. There is still an entire throughway

That bears his name and when she drives on it

She surely thinks of him. Also, so far as I know,

She never mentions Former Governor DeWitt Clinton.
