Does all this amuse you?
Or does that question belong to someone else?
Like the anonymous whimperings of a cold
and hungy dog,
Lost in a purchase of betrayal.

What is the merit of such abuse?
Are you just an impodent charity
in vacant tribute?
Or am I obsolete?
Like a week old newsprint,
or a pen out of ink.

You see me a victim of my own hand.
Perhaps, I am a consequence of sorts,
Filed in fancy petition where
your signature is bought.
With smug,
convenient coincedence,
That's as inevitable as dirt,
or stale sperm on a shirt.

Are there no clean sheats?
