Old man
out in the world
as I wander
I watch women
and wonder if
is she young enough
to be my daughter
or a granddaughter
or youngers still
how would it be
to have a daughter
who looked like her
oh how would it be
or a granddaughter
how men talk
of their granddaughter’s
but not me
out in the world
as I watch women
and always wonder
how it might be
