Polamalu Fan Club

By Catherine Simpson

A circle of sandwiches and half-smoked cigars--
	Friday night dinner with the 
Polamalu Fan Club. The playing cards are all
	Worn on the edges, and the 
Snow outside percusses with that brushed jazz
	Sound: ss-sst-sst-sss….
Pittsburgh in the winter, and the neighbor is 
	Shouting at her kids
		Again.
