We don't read and write poetry because it's cute. We read and write poetry because we are members of the human race. And the human race is filled with passion. And medicine, law, business, engineering, these are noble pursuits and necessary to sustain life. But poetry, beauty, romance, love, these are what we stay alive for." ~ Professor Keating (Robin Williams) in "Dead Poet's Society"

Poker Fleas
Pok Er fleas On green felt Cling like leeches Sucking infected blood Preying on powerless suckerfish Swimming against current In unsuspecting schools Of railbirds- Fleas of poker
