“My Family Gave Me Nothing
except, by a series
of legal accidents,
the barn of a house.
Room after dripping room with
grim ancestors staring down
the years though
grimy frames. I auctioned off all

winning bid. How soon awful
odors will drift through the ultra
neighborhood! Framed personages
now claimed as theirs. It's all
from Gilbert and...
Solomon!”
