Where Are They Now
where is he now?

they chased around
the playgrounds
just to see his shoes
flopping in and out
half off his bare feet.
Where are they now?
the poor girls
disheveled and plain
without lipstick and makeup
illiterate
who dreamed of the babies

or purgatorial.
Saved
in this great wink
of eternity....
