flag tongue


once glimpsed flogging a flag
vexed by cleanliness
wed to the hand of delegates
prepared notes
where there were plenty of buffalo
unless
there were not
tho the former later became
ueven
despite sex boosters & locked in truthes
which always gave me trouble
until
an american woman & a prize fighter
knew how they should treat the situation
held in one hand
once lapsed wagging a dog
by its
tongue...
