Tossing wriggling coins

into so many gushing fountains

yet:

none granted my wishes

CV headed "disappointing"

perused by hairy halfwits

never realizing the full picture

Assholes attempting abstract analysis

coughing up cattarric comfort

rap-dancing a choleric choreography

as I applaud

from the gutter of disappointment

and wash away

with the sewer's flush

grasping lightning

wreaking vengeance

but fooling no-one

standing in a comic-book queue

for a senryu of seasons

signing my life away

for the chance to win

a bronze baseball bat

lured to climb Everest

above the snowline

to find:

The Yeti is away

on shore leave

...but leave a message

he'll get back to you

Surely,

life owes somebody something...
