Beetles on a Rag
I didn't know that was a thing
maybe it's a one time thing
Mrs. ________
I love her type
freckly sunned skin
and a wrinkly cleavage
a clean bouncy dress
to her ankles
met by an opened-toed
kitten heel
not to mention
a clean, navy cardigan
her up-do is
streaked with honey
combed to the side
in a low, swooping bang
I see some diamonds
on her chest and her
fingers, she did say
"my husband"
she has a gel manicure
with that triangle middle
approx. 2 weeks old
when will she return
for a touch up?
a modest maroon
for the kids
an icy beverage in
a cup with a straw
for the heat
the ice shaking around
suits her perfectly
like a little soundtrack
