Dies Infaustus
LINDA ANN LOSCHIAVO
Though happiness writes white -- it doesn't show up
On the page -- misery gets volumes, greed
A decade, jealousy a series, candor
Is called back again on Oprah, shame
Re-cycled so that everybody
Can cash in, laughing at myths, fables that
Depict bold blackbirds, sly perennial
Thieves, spiriting away what's dazzling.
