Masquerading

Poem:  Masquerading 
Edited by:  Sparkle Jordan
written:  November/2014


There you 
are
Mr. Williams,
Sir.

I have
to
compliment 

your taste
in
clothes.

You are
the
"best dress"
man,

down here
in
the Tenderloin -

where 
everybody
is

hustling 
to
survive -

Know one 
living 
down here,

can 
afford your 
style -

You always
look 
casket sharp,

in
your suits
and
Stacey Adam
shoes.

Why ,
if I had'n 
ever 

seen you
before
Sir -

I'd
say you
where

a professor 
of
sorts.

Mr Williams,
Sir,

you are
the
coolest cat,

down here
in
the
Tenderloin -
