wall street blues

my uncle set me on his knee
he said, son
you can eat the day time
if you truly sink
your jaw into it
let the rot run out
like a bull chasing
the rest
likew the flow of sugar
in the tree tops
like capital
lorca's cow
is being milked
by brokers on their lunchbreak
blood from the utters drips
into the bottles
then tossed into the bay
after the banker takes a small sip
sending hormones on
to another shore's tide
