THE SORROW OF THE LEFT HAND
The left-hander at Bible Study
has all of my attention.
We share the same world.
He doesn't want to move
because he's left-handed.
Me and this woman here
we didn't get to do some things,
but stayed with it--
we stayed.
When I tell him, I'm left-handed too,
he says, Oh no! I've known
a couple of prominent ones--
what I have to say
is not complimentary.
I know those two myself, I say,
remembering Presidential debates
ten years ago. How can I say
either guy won,
in the wake of
the tsunami that followed?
