Three Poems
Clint Eastwood Retires at 96 I was thirteen when I saw The Good, the Bad, & the Ugly on a twelve-inch GE B&W Dad got me for my birthday. Yellow plastic with a handle on top for easy traveling; it never left the top of my bookcase. Three knobs on front: power, volume, channel changing dial. Three late shows until 1:00AM. Then test pattern hum and buzz after the Anthem—hanger-rigged an antenna to get a snowed out WGN from Chicago.
