THE PROFESSIONAL WITNESS, HERE COMES WHAT'S HIS NAME

- Colin James


In China I dressed in yellow silk
and timed my entrance with the wind.
In this country I wear gray sweats always
regardless of what the neighbors may think.
My service is just an eye to the memory.
There are clinical exceptions of course.
I have been working hard all afternoon,
resting now above a slight smoke rising. 
My dragons are killing me.
