Short Loretta Poems

Where are you sister?
Ground chews sweet leaves 
Wind fans fall tree particles.

Sufis whip up Lily air.
I know the Loves are always....

Hey Hey Loretta what do you say
When nobody cares if your heart matters
A princess with clothing in tatters
From Nelson to these tree-lined streets
Where all the artsy business types meet

Hey Hey Hey Hey Just go away
Tired for your voice everyday
Tired of how you wouldn't have it any other way
So goodbye now and have a good day
I will if you just go away...

I wonder
do you hear the pleas
the sound of whispers
thru the trees
someone calling 
far away
begging, please
take me away
do you realize 
my pain
how I need shelter
from the bitter rain
how I want 
to know you care
tell me please
that you are there
are you aware
could you be alert
to all the harmful
 words that hurt
let me know
that someone cares
I need you to hear
my lonesome prayers

Loretta Lockhorn Kisses the Floor

By Elton Camp 

Leroy’s drinking his wife does hurt
Likewise, how he chases every skirt

His earning power isn’t very great
A fact that Loretta often does berate

And it comes as no surprise
Her cooking he does criticize

At shopping she’s no expert
The family budget does hurt

One day she fainted dead away
Because of what leroy did say

He, puzzled, scratched his head
“I was wrong” is all that I said...

At first sight, her dark, 
innocent beauty captivated 
the spirited young redhead. 
They lived, loved, breathed 
through eight births 
and one death, baby Loretta.

Spine stiffened, she watched 
her love lowered six feet 
into the bitterroot soil,
her thickened body numb, 
her mind in time warp. 

She tasted gritty ashes,
unable to crush the stone 
lodged within her breast.
 
Children clung to her skirts
like baby opossums fastened
to their mother's skin....

Loretta was wearing a bikini with polka dots that dazzled.
We were loving her attitude, it was wild, sweet and razzled.
Many were fearful for she had more confident than most.
I liked her a lot when I realized she was my henhouse host.

She played Beach boy’s music, and you know it’s always right.
She was dancing with joyful steps, all the day into the night.
She is really something said the rooster who lived next door.
I knew it was because of the teensy bikini that she wore....

cover me, loretta
let me feel your skin react
let me feel your soul consume me like the feeling of warm soup on a cold sunday

cover me, loretta
enliven me with the unique warmth of your buttocks
let me feel the creative climate of your bosoms take me away to enchanted waves of paradise

cover me, loretta
humor me please with the ease of your charming wit
broaden the slightly ajar door of my mind again with your multifarious definitions of life's ticklish whirlpool as you know it...
