Gutter

who comes dirty and ruffled
from the sewer below
bathe in gray waters
swim like the smell of fish on the skin of the river
there's lard on the loin
it smells like death in the back of its mouth
one who lives in the sewer
and sleeps in the gutter
has no idea what smell
its nose has of itself...
