Poems for Sale


I'll peddle my poems on a busy street

right next to the hot dog cart

when the busy people come out to feed


I'll sit in the corner wearing a beret

and smoke clove cigarettes

waiting to catch the eye of a beatnik

or maybe a widow

looking for something sadder

to ease her sorrow.


I won't charge too much

I'll set a fair price

and with my jar of money

I'll buy some bubble gum

and a bright yellow

umbrella
