New Little Sister
A little limelight,
knocking back an old Tequila,
she laughs as hard
riding the lines Hot/cool
Razor grazing.
Nothing stops here. Odd/even
the tide in the distance
takes over
fin, tooth, snorkel, toe-ring
Course set becomes the inevitable
gamboge spume.
Island scrub oak reach up
for rapture, a riddle
under the fair facial,
scarlet flush 'accentuals,'
hair pinching the nape.
Days and days. A decision or script
appears
(A ghost from a western paradise
rings a tiny bell, and drops it
like a long stemmed maraschino cherry into
her dark Manhattan.)
She says "I" I could wave at you,
but these stiff crows in my best orbit
are placing cuffs on me. . . She wants all
her fanboys & girls to know
all apertures are open, calls you real
real strip-prowlers, A+ star gazers
and understands how you have to
love the glow she more than most.
