AMONG THIEVES
Before your pyromantic dancers
     Resume their gyroscopic waltz,
Before their esoteric answers
     Confute this con’s agnostic faults;
I’ll find an ordinary hustler
     Who wants to make an honest buck,
And call the hardest working rustler
     To steal me blind and call me schmuck.
