For My Hubris Collection
Rich Persoff
I want an artillery officer’s
Long-barreled Luger
From the mud of Stalingrad
With matching part numbers;
An autographed copy
Of Mao’s ´Little Red Book´;
A Nineteen twenties’ globe,
Pink with the British Empire;
A photograph of the President
Under "Mission Accomplished";
And a pristine Plate Number
Block of "Forever" stamps.
