South Carolina. Livery stable gang talking politics in the country of Senator "Cotton Ed" Smith: photo by Dorothea Lange, July 1938 (Farm Security Administration Collection, Library of Congress)
the old Senator
took the nurse's hand
as she felt his pulse
"your hands are cold
.you must be in love"
she acknowledged she was
"ah, honey does he have any money?"
old men know a thing or two
sometimes when you least
expect it
he died soon
