You get the idea, SGVPQ 40

Mary Frances Spencer

PIGGIES

down jones
all 500 have gone south
bears can’t find any ice to stand on
bulls choking in dusty
foreclosed fields

green is in the red
blue faces can’t breathe
underwater

treasure
lost

so all the kings
and us pawns
have to put Humpty Dumpty
back on the
wall

before the pieces
of the last eight years

break the camels
and squeeze the piggies
who cry

all the way

home
