		A Poem for Mr. Mincemeat

	The poet is shut away in his old tower.
	Hear the wind.
	The poet is musing, without appearing to.
	All of a sudden, he has goose-bumps.
	The Devil!
	No, it's not him: it is the wind,
	the wind of the spirit passing by.
	The poet's head is full of it,
	full of wind.
	He smiles slyly, while his heart weeps like a willow.
	But the spirit is present!
	It gazes on him with an evil eye: a glass eye.
	And the poet grows meek and blushes.
	He can muse no more: he retches!
	A terrible retching of blank verse
	and bitter disillusions!

MONEY STINKS

I stayed at home today
and I'm not going back to work...

money stinks
the city stinks

smell the power smell the health
smell the poverty of America's wealth
money smells of evil's greed
capitalist wants and pumped up needs

blah blah blah ...

(dirty rotten imbeciles)
