John Lawless Poet Free verse

WAIT HERE

You will see them
In the malls
Once proud
Vibrant
Semi-predatory
Creatures
Idling
Semi-lurking
Outside
Ladies dressing rooms
Lingering
Near
Ladies bath rooms
Scanning
Unfamiliar horizons
Seeking out their prey
Short grey haired
Quick
In a slyly agile way
Evaders
Of a known hunter
Foragers
Averting the gaze
Of those
Once proud
Vibrant
Semi-predatory
Creatures
Left holding
Their bags.

Gershon Wolf November 15, 2023 at 6:43 PM I guess I'm not a 'lady's man.' (Can one say that these days, i.e., without explaining his/her/its/their pronouns?).

Nancy Kaufman November 15, 2023 at 5:51 AM LOL John..I would say more awkward that they will be viewed that way. This was very funny though.
