the cobra is early
the hotel is empty
so is the grand stand
the rajah tells a joke
the adept returns with the trash
the blind queen smiles
and notes the king’s distress
mention of money irritates him
but losers always find apples
and the victims sip their wine
the judges open their wallets
and the sentries are out of excuses
nothing under the moon
belongs to the waitress approaching with her tray
