by Jerry Ratch
The bum had abandoned
More than half of his rich
Chocolate cake
In the bottom of the shopping cart
The wording on the top of the cake read
"Happy Birthday Marty"
But it also read
"From Marty"
Either he was too full
To eat his own words
Or suddenly he got sick
Enough of life
To finish

Quite poignant. **
Excellent.
Bum? He might have been a starving poet!
