Reason A. Poteet Poet Rhyme

Spender's Joy

troi-par-huit 

~
young, tender
prodigal, big spender

seeking some space, fleeing dad's full page
selfish stud left stranded on a short, shallow stage
legacy spent, spongers vanish, minimum wage 

with fear and filth in the pigs' employ
home held hope for this boy
spender's joy
~
