fifty dollars of hope
fram a South Bank restaurant
not just a tip
Yarra flows slyly past
it sees me for what I am
flushed by too much Shiraz
and the flaming Crowne Casino
you better; you bet…
can money buy time
buy twenty years
or am I just a fool for maple leaves?
she is Canada
dry
yet easy to take
for fifty dollars
