not my word juxtaposition, pleased to still from the opinion pages of the esteemed well street journal, on that street where I plied, played lost some, won more over the inevitable longer run but the phrase oozed familiarity, we all know the type, the next door neighbor who stink of shredded shrewdness under the black slapping red faced nose a poking, the insurance salesman who won’t sell u what you want/need, but the higher premium is just what you’re looking for, just sign here thank god i always wrote poetry so could not compose with those stains on my holy souly that would have ****** me to failure as a speculator no, kept my counsel closed, my enemies closer, and thank god made through that thirty year stretch left me with many bad habits, lying was not one of them, but, just, don’t ask me for my true name, and the only liquid I’ll proffer is clean bottled water
