I saw my friend Ernest.
He had two sticks of incense
stuck in the ground, burning.
"What's up, Ernie?" I asked.
"I'm talkin' to God," he said,
"How much money do I owe you?"
"You don't owe me anything," I said.
"What kinds of coins do you like?" he asked.
[Sometimes Ernie sells me old coins]
"I like old coins," I said.
"I got a coin that says,
Ernest has a sexy sex life," he said.
"You should keep that one," I said,
"for luck."
