I once knew a man from San Fran
who I never heard say “I can.”
He just sat in his chair
while displacing the air
looking just like a dead man.

I met her one day at a bus stop.
With her purple hair and Halloween socks,

with her need to invent

He was an old man by his years,
and had shed more than his share of tears.

and even though I am quite old,
one thing is for sure,
there’s still the allure
of a girl with such beauty so bold.
