'Dear Salvation Army' - a poem by Dawn McGuire

You can have the goat
I got for reading my poems
In Willits
He has balded my yard

Now he's grazing my books
The bible from when I was baptized
is his favorite so far
He is a brindle-colored goat

and under  other circumstances
a fine reward for a reading
The poet before me
got fish

Please arrange pick up very soon
I am okay with losing Leviticus
Would like to save Mark
and Ruth
