At this hour of Mr. McNamara's death I direct your attention to an elegy for President Kennedy, LIMOUSINE, MIDNIGHT BLUE: FIFTY FRAMES FROM THE ZAPRUDER FILM, in which the following lines occur:
'Before you tapped him / for Defense, McNamara ran Ford Motor Co., / and if we’re lucky, he’s got more bold new ideas.'
...as well as these lines:
'Ask not what the tolling bell can do for you, / ask what it matters in eternity. / Consider the dying stars, / how they bring unfinished business to a perfect end.'
For 8 sample poems, each with its own little VIDEO, see www dot jameyhecht dot com.
Thank you.
