The Jack of Hearts is Ferlinghetti's tribute to Bob Dylan:

     Dark Rider on a white horse
     after the Apocalypse
     Prophet stoned on the wheel of fortune
     Sweet singer with harp half-hid
     who speaks with the cry of cicadas
     who tells the tale too truly
     for the ones with no one to tell them
     the true tale of sound and fury
