Callicoon Theatre (b.1948)

We are of the same stuff

That Quonset hut and I

Post-war remainders

Conceived in the wake of it

And destined to carry it along

The last, great one

Now we appear quaint

Settled in the new millennium

There are sturdier monuments

Less subject to the craft of redefining time

But they have no joy

Our folly and salvation
