A Long-Felt Want

________________________________________________
Title:     A Long-Felt Want
Author: Ambrose Bierce [More Titles by Bierce]

Dimly apparent, through the gloom
Of Market-street's opaque simoom,
A queue of people, parti-sexed,
Awaiting the command of "Next!"
A sidewalk booth, a dingy sign:
"Teeth dusted nice--five cents a shine."

[The end]
Ambrose Bierce's poem: Long-Felt Want
