When I was a teenager I think I read a poem by Bradbury, that ended with the line:

"CHICAGO! And then he slept"

or something of that nature.

Anybody point me to the poem? I have several collections of his stories but haven't found it in any of them.

Haven't read it in a long while, but only thing I know with the word Chicago in it, isn't a poem, but one of Ray's plays:
To The Chicago Abyss

Do u think that i'm a freak???

Uh, oh. Please, please don't let this start again.

Amen

Whatever!

Back to the beginning. I don't have any collections of his poetry, so am not familiar with this at all. I have a book of his poetry on order at Amazon, and hope to get it soon. Sorry I can't help.

Nard, my sentiments exactly. I've read all of Bradbury's poetry from major publishers (several volumes from small press publishers include poems not found in the major volumes) and presumably the new large volume contains even the small press items. I have a vague recollection of this poem, but not enough even to say which collection it's in, let alone the title.
