ADAM WIEDEMANN

The country fiddler
like the crazed riddler
in Bavaria goes crazy
for only the poet
see the man on the horse
the hit man up close
gangsters in Chicago
in profile at the jail
the Hitler in one's heart
smashing the crystal glasses
of the synagogue
wanting a headline
and deadline
to kiss one cheek
of the lumpen proletariat
named Mr. Judas Iscariot.
