Walkers
| Living at their sufferance, | |
| we pay them with our gratitude, | |
| by telling them the lies they need, | |
| like disability's no big deal; | |
| it's overcome by pluck and courage. | |
| Licking ass most skillfully, | |
| we win their sympathy and all kinds of goodies— | |
| chess sets, books, TV's, | |
| maybe even our very own lives. |
