Belle of the Brawl
The lady Belle got into a brawl
She yelled and fell in a shameless sprawl
She met the bare floor
with her pinafore
Baring cleavage for one and for all...

Pinky the Odd Little Poof
Pina colada?
Pinky said sure.
Pinafore dressed
She looked truly pure.
Pin curls and pinballs.
Pinky provided proof
Pigtails non-withstanding
She was an odd little poof....

easter sunday memories
Lavender gingham dress
Teensy tiny cotton checks
Laced pinafore with dotted Swiss trim
Thick scratchy twirling tulle petticoat
Lacy white Sunday school gloves
I twirled my dress in my shiny patent leather shoes
Feeling enormously pretty...

God Was Wearing a Dress
God was wearing a dress and a pinafore in my dream.
She had a bubble pipe
She was blowing bubbles into planets
Creating the universe
God is a little girl I marveled
God continued her work
Not looking in my direction
It was okay
I am thrilled
To know her
At last...

The Predator
Remember your little pinafore?
You were sixteen.
I? Twenty-Four.
Now here you come through that door.
I spill out of my dress and on to the floor.
Lap up the moisture like a dog
So you may quench your thirst.
I become a sultry fog.
And on this mostly perfect night
Of my mostly miserable life
I mute the garish city lights.
Your pure childhood fantasy;
You'll soon hate me;
You'll see....

Falling Petals
My fingers ran over the bark
“A+K” nestled in a heart
Wouldn’t you come with me, he asked,
I cast a smile now an old scar
The gentle breeze closes my eyes
In the dusting of the springtime
Sweet scented thoughts of yesterday
Waft too often never to stay
Winds settle and plums bloom no more
The corpse of our carvings’ a stump
The lady in white pinafore:
"We should go back" - an innate grump
The clinic is a sight weary
None comes as close as “who was he?”...
