IMPARTING SOME SHAME

---

I haven't blushed in many years.
I'm not sure I know how.
But if I were this Madoff
I think I'd have a cow.
My blushes would glow like a light
that shines far out to sea,
warning sailors of shipwreck
on some shore hard a-lee.
My cheeks would burn like sulfur
and the heat would be intense.
My lowered eyes would tell the world
that I have no defense.
But Mr. Madoff does not blush,
and maybe he is right;
a blush is rather useless
when your soul is dark midnight.
