Mars

How great could Mars life be 

Without a single Starbucks 

Though in your effort to be free

You spent a trillion bucks.

Bones

When I return to Searsburg Mountain 

As I do periodically 

I look for the bones and skeleton 

Of those who would be free.

"Ain't"

Who's ever heard of Mother Cabrini?

   (she became a saint)

A respectable Italian-American

   (what Anthony Fauci ain't).
