FOXY LADY

FOXY  LADY

A grown woman just asked if she might

touch   the faux fox stole   eyes and all

around my neck     She begins by petting

it’s nose   then her hand wanders to my

cheek    which she strokes  as though she

cannot tell the difference   between fox        and me

I wonder if she is lonely   or just looking

for a redheaded Poet     to keep her warm     at night

YOU’RE SO FINE

YOU’RE SO FINE  YOU BLOW MY MIND    HEY RICKY

There’s an odd  young man  wandering the

Gallery today    Long yellow hair    a too dark

tan    A flash of my grade school   boyfriend

who appeared in a dream   last night    A boy

Elvis     Quite mad by high school      He had

a  band   in Grade 5     A bouffant by  grade 10

And a bruise under his eye    far too often
