You think the poem should be called "Fadeout"? I think I liked Spillane as a kid, same as I liked Agatha Christie, but in hindsight I find his style really basic and unintelligent. With Christie I could forgive that as her work was all about plot, but I think Spillane's subject matter - urban violence, vigilantism etc. - deserved more literary treatment.
Thanks for the kind words and feedback Billy.
