John F. Kennedy
       New York City
           I saw him across the lobby
                flight 161
                    St. Louis
                        Albuquerque.
Coyote looked in control
       cool
            fitting right into the city
                smiling when a pretty woman passed him
                    figuring out his flight
                         making calculations from behind
                             the New York Times.
Slick
        right down to his Tony Lamas
            Coyote
                I’d recognize him anywhere
                    Copenhagen
                         New York
                             Gallup.
People say
you can dress ’em up
       but once a coyote
            always a coyote.
