Not a gambler, not
a bit at odds with deuces,
& good as dead to his first wife
a bit at odds with deuces,
& good as dead to his first wife
A good even-keeled guy
with an itch & lots of passwords
who arrives late to pay his own rent
with an itch & lots of passwords
who arrives late to pay his own rent
by wasting half a day!
And the itch spent,& the path
to Lil bordered with dragons,mimosa,
he's here, dimples galore,
grin off-centered and pointing
to an embarrassingly over-ornate neck
grin off-centered and pointing
to an embarrassingly over-ornate neck
When he's in love, he loves
and it comes creeping in on a screen
and it comes creeping in on a screen
Setting a fake Ionic pillar in a semi-arc
of a yard is his own idea
—a virtual work of clip Art!—
—a virtual work of clip Art!—
and a poem on scant-leaved keys, too
Todd, in chains & cologne,
updating his profile,
while Lil
waits in the shadows of a fake temple
waits in the shadows of a fake temple
