Fortune will return
to ordinary men.
We’ll wear pure white
after Labor Day, then.
And women (well, those
d’un certain âge) will bare
their arms
and grow their hair.
Cars will lengthen,
children strengthen,
even dogs will evidence
their freshly gilded lines.
They say: “Your priorities
appear mixed up.
But, merely winning
the game is not enough.
Real joy lies in amplifying
each well-earned victory.
Our success is far more
satisfying when those
less fortunate can see.
