pain trumpeting from boney sides
god-damn socialists
thieves
thieves is what they are
like the doctors that cleave
they took a section and never gave it back
but he still has the strength to organize and reorganize
mow the lawn etc
thinner yes, but tough as telephone poles
like the ones he used to climb
as he naps in his chair, I notice the crease between his eyebrows is
still there
