Fey
from Rocky Street
With
her brother Jay
Who
had gold streaks in his hair
Black
She
was joyous, she was fey
She
stept to me sedulously
I
ran away
She
pronounced ‘Bullshit!’ incredulously
At
all romantic displays
(addresses
to Venus
In
the darkening day)
She
read a lot
Mostly
magazines
She
thought a lot
Of
Sharon Stone
She
was lit by the light of the city’s florid rays
How
does she look now,
and
how in the light of day?
