born entrepreneur

I used to make my own eclipses
all the time, with a tennis ball!

Kids would come running to look. Only two
or three at a time could see, but I

was more than capable
of keeping it up all day, or
for as long as they

kept bringing them nickels. Dream big,

says I. If you want, you can reach for the sky.

Today, I've run so many schemes and scams,
delighted so many with long and short cons,
I can pretty much sit on my laurels

- in fact, so can you! I designed a line
of skirts, shorts and pants
with a circular laurel wreath

right there on the ass, on the seat
embossed.

It looks beautiful there,
for all to see. And they'll know where you sit

sits victory

at luxurious cost.
