Two cents for nine

 they kick the ball, they run back

the ball, they grunt scream and collide,

watching their portfolios

behind concussions coincidental with overvalues of money.

symbolic hurt,

sponsored by resignation of inches across a map,

a field, oceanic territory, and one's worth

depleted shells of desperation

as american snipers are hailed

journalists jailed

and speech plays the snail, escargone

over freedom sensibility palate

dipped in butter of remorse

the only way to stomach the headlines

permissible in mecca by lash and sword,

and nra cowboys at the box office

where the minks are russian

and the muskrats take confession and give their

two cents while taking nine
