yo! Americana #7

    
   
   
1935    
   
Tupelo,    
Mississippi    
   
another dirt    
manger    
   
a different kind    
of king was    
born    
   
swaddled in blue    
suede    
   
all across the south,    
hound dogs bayed  
at the stars  
   
pompadour    
hair,    
guitar,    
hips swinging    
like sin    
   
adolescent girls    
orgasming,    
fainting    
   
a new temple    
to    
worship    
in
