On the next-to-last palindromic date 12/11/21 (US 2021) this year, I offer (from p 35 of the previously mentioned title, Of Course,):
Wisconsin Rhapsody
He likes to see his lovely lassy there
In Madison, Wisconsin’s Greyhound station —
Alive at the planet’s best encounter, filling
Those coffee cups he needs to be serene —
Far from the bus announcer’s clarion shrilling,
Her recreation serving dawn flirtation
Like easy sunrise. So, what does he declare?
Oh, listen to my words. He just remakes
Mountains from soda fountains, billets-doux
From luncheonette placemats, while he devours
Waffles drowned in syrup and apple yogurt,
And groans about the earliness of her hours,
Then leaves a pourboire on the breakfast menu
That rests beside the showcase full of cakes.
