Rock Dead
by Jonathan Lethem
What I wanna know is
Is rock dead?
Or has it only suffered a blow to the head?
Is it under a spell?
Is it wandering dumb in the wilderness?
If I call it will it heel?
What I wanna know is
How does rock feel?
What I wanna know is
Is rock dead?
Or has it just gotten up on the wrong side of bed?
If I poke it will it moan?
What if I called it on the telephone?
If I pinch it will it squeal?
What I meant to ask is
How does rock feel?
What I wanna know is
Is rock dead?
Or is only suffering from a blow to the head?
Is it sulking in its room?
Is it listening with an ear at the keyhole?
Does it hold out any hope?
What I wanna know is
Can rock cope?
