Wesley McNair, Big Cars,& the Hudson Hornet Hollywood


                                       needless to say, not Maine & not February.
It's dead of winter in Maine. The light is coming back, but it has a long way to go. One of the great things about Maine is the state is surrounded by Canada. Another great thing is our poet laureate, Wesley McNair, who has written a wonderful, brokenhearted poem called Big Cars
Ten years later,
they arrive on the thruway,
pulling winged fenders and smiling
a lane wide--big cars,
old floats that took a wrong
corner somewhere and lost
the American dream parade...
Hudson Hollywood Colo Springs 10/12
