NATALIE
(’11) (Many years ago, perhaps ’61, I stopped by my late
brother Rafael’s apartment off Melrose Avenue, in Hollywood,
and there was Natalie Wood (RIP) in the kitchen. Nice surprise.
The tribute below is based on the song “María,” her character
in “West Side Story.”)

-Say it loud,
and there’s
music playing…
-Say it soft,
and it’s almost
like praying.
