FAME & FORTUNE
The Tomato-coloured Couch 5:00pm
One Day My Writing —
My Scrawling Penmanship —
Will Be So Valuable
The General Public Will Scrounge
In Sobey’s Garbage Cans
For My Discarded Shopping Lists
The Hawk Outpost 8:19am
The blinding glare of sun
off the water
lies on this first day of spring
yet We are set, still
inside deep winter
with stars of light
glinting off My ice-covered
deck
