"Kilroy was here."
probably not since
the 40s
his prominent nose
flaps in resignation
a very sad sack.
And
Mary can't give
you a good time
her gums and teeth
are a thing of the past
nothing lasts.
Under a paper roll
it says "come clean
rip off a new
diploma from
the Extension School."
And for good measure
" Fuck--you."
" Jesus saves....
Moses invests."
