His Porch

the emperor's brother
wants me to count his empties
says i can keep
the redemption money
if i just get the cans
to hell off his porch
Doll, you may have found a place of rest but I'm still on the trail.

Those who think they have power
Always are looking for a custodian.
You can keep your goddamn nickel!
Leave the letter that never begins to go find the latter that ever comes to end, written in smoke and blurred by mist and signed of solitude, sealed of night.

The poem has that feeling when you know the owner of the big house thinks you belong to him, but he does not know you are sleeping with his wife ...... chuckle
