Living Through My Pen
I chase down the wolves, the lions, tigers and bears, oh my.
They are wearing slick black jackets, and sliding around in the rain
On motorcycles
Non wearing helmets, rather chains and tattoos
If my mother would like them I am not interested
They reek of cigars and beer, and they are the baddest of the boys
My pen stops here and snickers
I smack it upside the head
Vicarious you maybe, she says.
Now I know it is full-blown Trixie, my uppity know-it-all muse.
I should choke her to death
She is such a mood killer.
