Still Life With Vintage
A girl tweaks in the early sun
Busy thoroughfare
Urban playground
A golden frame upon the wall,
Baroque Mouldings
Ceaseless Traffic
A sea of frogs
Green with golden flecks
And a pink design along the hemline,
Vintage Cocktail Dress, circa 1954,
Displayed within
The tweaker swears and
Sputters,
Runs in and out of traffic,
Arms waving face red and raving
Foam at the mouth
I fancy this a modern
Bohemian Styling, mid-century yet
An eclectic blend of
My intellect and my taste
A dangerous man in a red pickup truck
Slows down, turns round the corner,
Drives by once again
I have encouraged my designer
To hang all paintings in
Such a manner
So that the light glints the frame… just so…
56 Degrees
Tweaker girl wears a string bikini top
And dark blue sweat pants
No shoes and blonde hair breaking off
The walls are cream and the
Flooring Parquet
The truck driver shouts an obscenity
Then opens the passenger door
Quiet grace inhabits
Every corner of this apartment
She gets in the truck
Ignorant armies
