  if memory doesn't fail him
a good many of his
auxiliaries were
inferring that my
flagrant lack of lucre
undeviatingly
upheld all his major doubts

who's to tell which doings i might
set upon without their staunch
belief in me their
never-flinching claims to
petty punishing control

perchance i would be
horribile dictu
ticketing all those compensations
in coined equivocation
refusing remotest kinship with
their grim army of ants
to have no part in any of
their testy computations
nor prizing filigree intricacies
of that bean counting craft

still
he'll probably reflect on
that raft of
uninspired hooligans,
to override in
discrete glee
their misty
group passivity

for after all it does demand
the money negative
and plenty plenty of it too
for proper poverty to
blossom forth

and would it not be
quite unthinkable else
to let that sweetest
dirge of destitution
go unsung
