’82

-I stand in front of the statue…
-The inscription reads:
“Zig Zaggerman – Debtor.
Slain in 1982
by an enraged creditor,
2 hours A.D.
(After Default).
-I take off my hat…
‘Sorry, Zig, nothing I could do,
good thermo-nuclear morning to you.’
-I walk away, a tear in my eye –
after a few steps, I look back…
-Incredible!
-Where Zig stood
there’s now a GIANT parking meter,
in violation!
-Overhead,
a confused pigeon
drops his load anyway.
