A Wallet, Found

In my e-mail late today,
A message sent through

Great delay: A wallet,
found! A cursed thing

That should rebound
upon my house. Is

it an omen of the future?
What else could bring

That putrefaction?
It's set in motion

The grinding wheels, all
Grating zeal, to

Denigrate my centrist
Lust for simple certainty.


Either way; it's set to
Stay upon my mind.

And on my bookcase, lest
It loose another set of cards.
