The King of Spades wrote another poem
What was it this time?
Five stanzas about Kafka eating corn flakes
How does the poem end?
Kafka passes the spoon to Derek Jeter
So Kafka is a Yankee fan?

but where the name is usually stitched
on the back was written
HELP WANTED
Was the bowl empty when he passed the spoon?
It had been empty but when he passed the spoon,
the bowl filled with pins and needles.
