They Say Young Men
Have No Ambition These Days
The poetry section is the most remote:
The floor where the staff sneak away for lunch
Or lovers rendezvous for lovers’ arguments
A few eccentrics who want to read poetry
A young man sees it as his corner office
Reposing in a chair, feet up on the glass
Wielding two ‘phones, negotiating sex
And drugs, and his efficient deliveries
A pimp among the poets, playing the world -
Who says young men have no ambition these days?
