A poem by Pat O'Cotter

Dedicated To Alaska

________________________________________________
Title:     Dedicated To Alaska
Author: Pat O'Cotter [More Titles by O'Cotter]

The home of the tin can and dog,
A waste of snow, ice, and moss.
The graveyard of ambitions,
The by-word for hell,
The home of the famed double cross.
Men come here for gold,
Ambitious for wealth
They stick--for they can't get away,
They dig, drink, and die,
And then go to hell,
To pay for their last sucker play--






[The end]
