Against the Many Targets
By Max Crinnin
Wegmans has two sized carts or a basket
I take and hold my self tightly.
It is mid-day, mid-week, and only some of us
Really have time to be here now:
The old folks push angel food and tapioca,
Wealthy housemothers of Williamsville
Are hungry for something, more or less
Gluten? Look at the people
Admire rare cheese and Spanish
Hams! I think I could live
Here, like I did today
In the presence of Capicola.
