-title: 'Ronald McDonald'
-project: 'Elegies for Alternate Selves'
-project-order: 26
-genre: 'verse'
-...
-
-When Ronald McDonald takes off his [striped shirt][], \
-his coveralls, his painted face: when he no longer looks \
-like anyone or anything special, sitting next to women
-
-in bars or standing in the aisle at the grocery, \
-is he no longer Ronald?  Is he no longer happy to kick \
-a soccer ball around with the kids in the park,
-
-is he suddenly unable to enjoy the french fries \
-he gets for his fifty percent off?  I'd like to think \
-that he takes Ronald off like a shirt, hangs him
-
-in a closet where he breathes darkly in the musk.  \
-I'd like to believe that we are able to slough off selves \
-like old skin and still retain some base self.
-
-Of course we all know this is not what happens.  \
-The Ronald leering at women drunkenly is the same who \
-the next day kicks at a ball the size of a head.
-
-He is the same that hugs his children at night, \
-who has sex with his wife on the weekends when they're \
-not so tired to make it work, who smiles holding
-
-a basket of fries in front of a field.  He cannot \
-take off the facepaint or the [yellow gloves][].  They are \
-stuck to him like so many feathers with the tar
-
-of his everyday associations.  His plight is that \
-of everyone's---we are what we do who we are.
