The cycle sunk
and with disaster
capsized the bounty:
a quick game played into
extra terms and over time,
a reckless plot with
some mention of revenge;
a speculative view
afforded by affronting the populace.
the spring is wound…
the sword is drawn with crayons,
and you and I are pawns
in a game of pick-em-up 52.
-Zumwalt 1973
