Reading Your Sad Letters From Far Away Poem by RIC BASTASA

twas like making
commercial hotcakes

mass made and sold
at a cheaper price

then given to everyone
who even do not need it

feeling so cheap and vulgar
and i said thanks anyway

keep the trade
make the cakes and fill the

world with stuff like that
solve the hunger that is no

longer there. Precisely.
emote freely, keep safe and

just just be happy in
the most simple terms

do not complicate what is
at most honest and sane.
