Ten Dollars

To ninety rand my friend

My lover my soul have you seen it today

Tomorrow and years before in dreams of

Spain and

France

The soaring beggars and floating muds

Ten dollars to the rich

Ten more extra slices of cheese

Hold the onions tomatoes and fried

Horse

Ten dollars to pulp

To flying saucers and mixed metaphors

And incest and insects

Ten dollars to ninety rand

Ninety rand to two meals from

Maccy D’s and back to ten

Dollars
