Kansas in Cinemascope
KANSAS IN CINEMASCOPE
IN COLD BLOOD and—
MURDER ORDAINED were
bad enough I suppose
Up there on the silver—
screen of the ancient
film palace GRANADA
____________
HOW THE WEST WAS WON—
cheesy angelic choruses plus
Spencer Tracy’s booming voice
Things ending up more like—
a nightmare version of
BAD DAY AT BLACK ROCK
_________
Such a lovely little town—
full of Midwestern Noir
and grim resignation
Stoic desperation—
ending up quietly
in sad obituaries
