“You’re too bright for me! I’m just a baby!”
“Just because I’m in the dark, doesn’t mean you get to be on top all the time!”
“Black and white movies in my eyes: before the talkies came calling…”
My eyes
are not for you to see;
but me to be
a she or he:
a dark-eyed
mystery.

Who’s in the background
looking at me?
I”ll climb in the eyes
and see.
Could it be
mommy?
Loving me?

My Mirror
Only shows the face; never the hips!
The wide eyes, never the Howdy Doody Lines around the lips;
They drag me down, make me look old and cranky,
Crank shaft caught, locked up, no bearings, only slips.
The wide eyes; never the Howdy Doody Lines around the lips;
Or rooster’s neck, or moles and freckles’ flaws;
Manicures, not wrinkled hands with claws!
They drag me down, make me look old and cranky,
Grouchy, dulled, discarded, dank-y;
Dismal, drifting, bony, blank-y.
Crank shaft caught, locked up, no bearings, only slips:
Gears go slow: from fourth to first… and stall
From showroom… to lot… to used… to junk…that’s all.
