The Encantada is All Mine.

I recently purchased a book of poetry that a friend of mine wrote. I can't honestly say that I understand poetry and I certainly can't write it for shit, but now that I have paid legal tender for a book of it, I feel I can consider myself a patron. With this newfound patron status and a little "poetic" license I now feel justified when I go to bars and tell 40-year-old women that I am a wealthy Italian searching the US for art to patronize. This way, I at least feel like a bad poet, because I have fooled a middle-aged woman into thinking I was deep and sensitive. Plus at the end of the night I can get her to pay for my tab by saying I haven't converted any of my vast fortune to US Dollars yet.
