My Autograph

What—write my name!
How vain the feeble trust,
To be remembered
When the hand is dust—
Grieve rather that the talents freely given
Were used for earth—not treasured up for heaven!

Widening Income Inequality by Frederick Seidel
Frederick Seidel
I live a life of appetite and, yes, that's right,

I have a rule—
I never give to beggars in the street who hold their hands out.

I woke up this morning in my air-conditioning.
At the end of my legs were my feet.
