They say you can hear it like the rain-
millions of tiny gold pennies, falling from grace
down into the drainpipes, rolling into the gutter,
enchanted by the music of the fat cats
and their pied piper.
I wonder.
Perhaps like human tissue replenishes the earth
those lost pennies will make us good again
make us grow and see the world
and all it’s true beauty
for what it’s worth?
