if i could simply barter my bets
into to some handsome rewards
if the plot to my life had temporarily
only become some
lottery of loss
then i would kindly buy you a drink

being poor, i have only my books of yeats,
my years of disdain,
my dialect is misappropriated
malaise

tread softly, little girl
you're treading on the already burning ashes
of poets
that roared with a pitchfork
with more terror
than i could spin with a pen

be careful, child
