The last generation.

I'd
like to be
a poet
who goes
to wine parties
and soirees

to sup
champagne,
mingle
with authors,
and eat
caviar;

but I know
I'll never
meet Johnny Carson
or kiss
Capote's feet:

I am
of
the last generation

and I'll
probably
end up
dead
in a ditch
before
I've even made it
half-way through.
