Christopher Flaherty Poet Free verse

Buddy Can You Spare a Dime of Humanity Or Humility

I heard you correct

The first time 

All you ever initially asked for

Was buddy can you spare a dime

But thinking I am so kind

I pulled out and offered you

A $100 dollar bill note instead

Honestly I think for the sole reason because 

So I could lord and let myself

And believe my goodness

Go to my head 

So buddy as little as you may think

You may have or haven't got

What you in fact do

Or will never want

Is anything in fact

From me 

Because what I obviously

Do not possess

Is a single ounce

Of humility

Or 

Humanity
