Judge Ye Not

The pseudo city-bred judge

falls down,

his world-sharing medicine ball

a dog star

to a yellow journalist

a world series prayer

stiffening like pudding batter;


a light-harnessed screw tool

a fair-hued black-bulb

thermometer at mid-chest

the world-breaking insurance broker

pearl gray

and lost

in his suit.
