Skin stretched tight,
and taught
to not ask the wrong questions
Stretch the lechers
wanters and needers,
greediest solipsists,
haters and feeders
Packed slack on the rack
backs crack,
as wheels are turned
and lessons unlearned,
bared teeth keening,
meaning and sentiment elementarily deprived
from the dregs of kegs drained,
store bought greetings
feelings contrived
for some sense,
unappropriated recompense,
a small coin dropped at the feet,
weakest voice intelligible,
of the poorest man imaginable
