Larry Bradfield Poet Tetractys

Why Not Me

Why?
Said he,
Why choose him?
Him over me?
Am I not the most handsome man around?

Don't I have more money than you can spend?
It's a puzzle,
Makes no sense,
Choosing 
Him

Ah,
Said she,
I choose him-
Do so gladly
He's a wise man and he can dance real slow
