Pleaser
Our brave sailor
drank to much beer
yesterday
with his friends.
His pockets are empty.
His eyes are blurry
and his head
is heavy like a stone -
and now his third wife
comes
and demands money.
Money for food.
I don't have it.
Money for dog food.
I don't have it.
She is buzzing
into his ears.
Then she plays nice.
At least, money
for gas, honey.
There goes our
brave sailor
in the dark
to suck gas
from other cars
to please his third wife.
