Polemic

Mammon smells green:
perfume of cash

on the air.  Retail
or mausoleum?

The white, mostly marble
stretch of Grant Street

thronged with sleek
livestock, prize

heifers hauling bags
from Armani, Joe's

Jeans.  I bite the hand
of a big one.

She lows and kicks me off,
then with her phone sells

her stock in British Petroleum
at a loss.
