It had to said he thought so he
compromised it was no biggie
just a little lie and he wrote it in
a winsome verse and posted it
– the replies were legion (it means
there was more than one) and
at least two complained but
the rest followed the names
of those who’d attached their
thoughts and praised the naughty
witty ditty with its smutty gritty
innuendo about the game the poets
played of being whores to words
for choices for which he claimed
with all his misguided sense
of obtuse timing that there
was nothing wrong
in being right…
