The name of the play was Don\u2019t Say You\u2019re Here\r\nWhen You\u2019re Not All There, and it starred, I believe,\r\nLillian Fish, King Kong, and Lassie, that year\r\nDrawing raves, if memory serves to deceive,\r\nBut we didn\u2019t go\u2014there was something about a hat\r\nOr a color, and then World War Three arrived\r\nTo gray our heads in weathering all of that,\r\nBut though that tempest bellowed, we survived,\r\nAnd now we stand in line again to see\r\nThe same play, this time with Lash LaRue,\r\nA washed-up whale, and Pauline Parlez-Vous,\r\nNewly-dealt ghosts, clear cards where we\r\nRead past and future, as though the present cared,\r\nOr the future somehow knew, or the past had dared.<\/pre>\n

R. W. Haynes has taught literature at Texas A&M International University since 1992.  His recent interests include the early British sonnet, and he is completing a second book on the Texas playwright and screenwriter Horton Foote (1916-2009).  In his poetry, Haynes seeks to celebrate life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness without sounding any more dissonant notes than he has to.  In fiction, he works toward grasping that part of the past which made its mark on his generation.  He enjoys teaching drama, especially the Greeks, Ibsen, and Shakespeare, and he devoutly hopes for a stunning literary Renaissance in South Texas.
