Begger's Fart
the begger's fart
a prayer more sacred
than lines well rehearsed
in Sunday morning temples...
the addict's vomit
a poem more relevent
than eight years of pompous degrees
can buy or claim...
the homeless man's cup of coffee
passed and shared,
a theology no master
can pass to his students...
