8/23/2004

After
shopping around
and with the gunshots
of slamming doors
going off
next to my head
as people
come and go
death picking up
where life leaves off
I have decided
though love
may not be
the best buy
on market day
with atrocities
and an aptitude for
reliably poor choices
readily available
I see nothing
more likely to improve
one’s perspective
at any given minute
and
do not think
I have overlooked
the many fine uses
to which money
can be put.
