Blind Leading the Blind

We pay tinkers, we pay tailors,
We pay skilled cabinet makers
We pay experts through the nose
Podiatrists trim our toes
We pay automo mechanics
When our transportation panics
We pay cooks, and cleaners too ~ 
The one thing we don’t pay is you
Visionary? Oh, just stow it:
No one’s ’bout to pay a poet

*****

This poet presently lives at a fraction of her nation’s poverty level.

Arts patrons may visit http://www.UgiftABLE.com , using code 72D-31S. It will take about two weeks for the poet to be notified of your patronage.

Thank you for supporting quality in the fine arts
