The Contest
by Nancy Ames"I guess you won that conversation
and you should get a prize
for interfering dedication
and masterful disguise.
My friend and I use older knowledge,
a horse that will not race,
every imitation "new age"
consumes its time and place.
I see you think that ridicule
can answer any question,
but I and this sweet, silly "fool"
get honorable mention."
