Over a bunch of dirty, yellow rubber ducks in a black tub, is a poem with white font on a black background. GRIFTER Rehearsed lies Told routinely Ceremoniously toppled and unveiled Swimming in self-satisfaction Shading all attempts To take responsibility Then a loud crack A palm landed squarely Against an unassuming cheek Now a stewing anger Ready to explode Due to necessary exposure Clearly resigned to future revenge The heel will wait impatiently
GRIFTER
