La Mort du Roi Dada Neptuna
Photo/ untittled, by dkzk, c2020a.d.
it seems we must have
missed the news.
Or, perhaps it was clothed in the garb of
obscurity.
King'dada Neptuna
has not been seen
on the coast,
where he was oft visioned
everyday,
crashing waves,
bucking currents,
in all tides. in all weathers, diving, running the sands,
with diminutive canine-angel, Alice,
making the "best" of the dadaKing's
late-life loneliness years,........
(making fruitless attempts to find a femme to be with sometimes).
There EveryDay.
For years at a time.
Now, he's gone. We never noticed his gone'ess,
It's been long'about
four years now.
There's rumor that he died
not too long after the death of his Daughter in '18 (July 4th).
(Surely, he must have passed away by now).
A broken image of some likeness of him
has been seen briefly twice or thrice, ankle-deep in the Atlantic,
just gazing out to sea,
(but so infrequently and briefly that perhaps it was a left'over
ghost of his wishful thoughts for a "way of life" so far gone in so many
ways. )
Where'ever he's gone after all these years, may he R.I.P.~~~~~~~~~
