I wouldn't call Bill Plotkin's WildMind
unmitigated Wild RightBrained,
nor would I call his WinWin therapeutic thinking

of Negative YinEnergy
seduced by Yang Supremacy

rising like the undead under deep coffin skies, 
when Death warmed over looks healthier by far, 
lurching blindly in the dawn...

I make a perfect dry martini,
I read and write and speak Français,
All my suits, and shirts, and shoes are custom-made.
I own a Porsche and Maserati,

What i love
further in this life,
It's woman...
woman of any
creed, race and color...:
female,
femme.

Always present
always companion.

I've always felt prosperous till Satan's Trumps,
They're American pirates and whores: Worship "Lust!"
Now I've ash on my face, and my gold smells like rust.
Institutions we trusted, have raped or dead umps.

The weak ape the rich...

Poetry, let’s me write freely,
But football the one to be viewed,
One I can do but the other I can’t,
It’s a fact not just others being rude!
The pow’r of the pen an enrichment,

Now nouveau riche dogma
