exchange

"spare some change"
I button up my coat
to passing through the needle eye

"god bless you"
how dare he!
how dare he invoke god

I return with a pound

for which at present
I might buy fifty barrels of oil

that should keep the lamp burning

and if not that
the can of special brew

god it's cold!
