It’s a million sub
giveaway
a donut a day
a fausnaught day
a fasnacht day
i hop for pancakes
all you can eat
hear the state of the union
complain of
orbiting carbon decay
happening now
in antarctica
at an observatory
where a tea party
has barreleye fish
converging on
a mardi gras
and there
a true beauty winner
is saddened by
a chinatown fire
feeling desultory
and saying
why didn’t sharon stone
get an oscar?
