Drum Majorette and Her Best Day
drum majorette
with her kick high boots with tassels
short pleated black and white skirt
oversized gold-embellished band hat
leading the ban on an autumn day
homecoming parade for a small town
promptly put on little girls’ perpetual pedestals
not recognizing this is the best day
she will ever have in her life
not anticipating her fatal car wreck tomorrow.
her grandmother waving and taking photos!
