To Christopher Mulrooney's previous piece     To Christopher Mulrooney's next piece

You have a new order

so they raid a Pachinko Parlor
paid off in Pogs and Pokémon
the wind blows not at all from the
mouthing face silent at yours
not that any of the city escapes hearing

this what you know by all is all accounts
to be said unfortunately what is yours mine anyhow
in all account books locked up tight for the weekend
anybody's whirl of time and creak of suspicion

         and what a blow
         the recording angel
         sees all knows all
         sells to the highest bidder
