striped skunk or smelly onion
playful waters or destitute

Chicago could mean each of these
did the indigenous commute?

the name is still debated
the University in pursuit

of truth and beauty and Great Ideas
but Marc Cohn was my lute

I listened to him most every day
sometimes heard gunfire that did shoot

if I go back to discuss my attack
I’ll wear a sweatshirt, not a suit
