Something a traveler with plenty of money might pick up
And bring home and stick on the walls and say:
“There’s a little thing made a hit with me
When I was in Cairo—I think I must see Cairo again some day.”

Phenoms looking for more worlds to corner,
And still other phenoms who lard themselves in
And make a killing in steel, cop...Read more of this...
