i wish i could write like chris romano

by Jared Fladeland

pin ball jingle in my pocket:

one...
two...
three...
four...


five dollars and fifty cents in quarters
won in a hard fought game of dice in a bar.

i look up at the price of a gallon of milk.
just enough for some skim milk and a chocolate bar.

i never want to be this poor again.
