Time for a smoke,
the locker nearly full:
Fourteen tons of
Swanson Chicken Dinners
for the American
officers' club in Taiwan
(breasts, thighs, drumsticks);
Six tons of wings, necks, and backs
bulk packed
bound for Sonny's Supermarket
on Pago Pago;
three tons of chicken stomachs,
a gift from the White House
to the poor of Bangkok.
