That Carpenter Poem is such a kick..i loved that...

The man she was writing to is dead-
time to
stop thinking about him-

the artist who painted her is dead.

She should be dead herself,
only she has an ear for music

and when
the thief puts her behind the wheel and says, "drive, baby,
the night is ours",

it is the Girl Writing a Letter who steers
the black van on to the westbound ramp for Storrow Drive,
and then to the Mass Pike,

it's the Girl Writing a Letter who
drives eighty miles an hour headed west into a country
that's not even discovered yet,

with a known criminal, a van
full of old masters and nowhere to go but down,

but for the
Girl Writing a Letter these things don't matter, she's got a beer
in her free hand, she's on the road,

she's real and
she's in love.

So...."The Concert" was never recovered?? That's amazing.

Where do you suppose these priceless Masterpieces end up when they're stolen?
