Wild Irish Red Roses
For his sweet heart,
Standing in front
The department store 
Display window...

Premium Member Department Store Santa
I knew a fellow who played Santa Claus He hated department stores just because Kids were insightful, but Sometimes a bit spiteful And his snow white beard was made out of gauze.

In the Air
Trump let one rip at his rally
(You know Jan's keeping the tally)
On November third
No more whirlybird
Prison is right down his alley*

*Despite Barrett, Trump's 
Justice Department have failed to
block E. Jean Caroll's lawsuit
against the POTUS for raping her
in a department store dressing room!...

Dancer
Leg warmers flop and fold 
Embracing tender ankles 
Adored by suitors 
Ready to heal with bouquets 
And accolades.

Balanced, extended, 
Moving off air,
Like flowers, forever stretching
Kicking up relevé

Like the aromatic main floor of 
An old department store 
at Christmas.
Their limbs like flowers, 
Forever fragrant....

Premium Member The Well Built Carryatid
She was the most well-built caryatid 
On 5th Avenue, chosen for her width.
Her flowing robes were a concrete tree.
Statuesque and tall, she intimidated me.

She held up the porch of a large department store.
With her three concrete sisters, forever more.
Four concrete beauties, Greek architecture.
What they were thinking, I can only conjecture....

Premium Member Unlucky Lulu
Lulu was an unlucky woman
Lost three sons
one in a department store in 92
one in an ocean, deeply blue
Where’s the third one? I asked mutual friend, Old Sue
On the sidewalk, playing skip to my Lou
Both of the other boys found their way home too
One was fifty, the other was fifty-two
I barely recognized them said Lulu
This was told to me by story-teller Sue...

Mercy Living
It is still that night.

It is forever that night.

All you remember

is a party          a party

& you stoned

               not knowing

it would be forever

                        forever

like a granite cliff

above a river

immense in your shriveling—

fetus-like they say—

a reverse of birth

a slow dying

                       dying

to faint

               deadly

department store music....
