by John Butterfield
dark
suited with ties and yet not smart
in
a shiny Italian way
but
very respectable
they
chat comfortable
man
to man with each other
as
they, followers of "the craft"
looking
inwards to one another and
tolerating
those outside their sacred circle
en
masse attend the funeral
as
the deceased was one of their own.
they
seem unfriendly
but
perhaps that’s because I am excluded
from
this secretive inner clique
of
lower middle class masons
and
happy to be so
