75 ǀ counsel

Probably should leave me be
and head elsewhere
if I were you and it’s my advice you want.

Pack you up!
your pretty green bags and get the hell on out
of dodge. Skedaddling now (you slippery devil)

would be optimal for all, you know—

because you done broke

one
too
many
hearts.

Oh I’ve been told
your intentions were good
and your promises were clean,

but I just assume
you get right back on your horse
and flag tomorrow’s lottery

folks on down.
