Dollar & a Dream
By Stephen Howe

The gray man shuffled
crookedly toward my pickup

He had the desperate look of
an innocent man
buried alive

I countered with a smile
you could pour over pancakes

& gushed apologoes
for having spent my last dollar
at the car wash

as his face fell
like a childless father
