Words For Sale

Whom could it be, this professional Poet
  selling his blood for a few kernels of grain

Whom could it be, this professional Poet
  pandering to others in search of a name

Whom could it be, this professional Poet
  drunken talk-show appearance, stumbling again

Whom could it be, this professional Poet
  the strongest of liars—the weakest of men

(Villanova Pennsylvania: February, 2014)
