55
The
Rite
of
Spring
The
Chosen
One
who
danced
herself
to
death
for
the
elders.
Hollywood
producers
gather
around
her
in
a
circle,
chirping
like
Spring
pipes.
Suddenly
America
flowers
and
her
image
becomes
immortal,
as
Joe
DiMaggio
strikes
out
on
opening
day
and
goes
into
the
locker
room
after
the
game
to
light
a
cigarette.
