Comb In Hand

two yuan, or

more into

horse races,

fresh prints

on muddy track

of flatbed truck,

some I’ll buy

Kentucky bread —

or re-read

to morrow, dailies

blown against

a broken fence —

the driver, she,

is no fool &

shall not bet

on ‘Khan Again’,

or ‘Polo Anyone’ —

there’s ‘2nd Cents’

& ‘Squeaky Cleang’ —

‘tho her hearts upon

‘Raspberries Baby’
