Dirge of the Salesman
-The women tied up the airport
with Chief Complaint Day! So I
missed my appointment with
Old Man Tompkins and his kid.
-YOUR chief complaint?
-They got me fired last time.
Said I was a drunk.
-Were you?
-Went fake AA and Chubby Carl took
me back.
-And your record since?
-More misses than hits. More hangovers
than triumphs.
-Thinnest ice?
-You get used to it.
-By the way, what is the women's Chief
Compliant anyway?
-They're working up to it.

The Policymaker, Drunk
Oh there’s a prosperity.
For the few. And we intend
to keep it that way.
So stage your marches, etc.
Print your funny signs--
a folk art to be sure.
God’s design in Truth
you chafe against
your place. Briefly.
Wholly yield,
you’ll know
happiness. Won’t
need the pursuit.
