Standing Ovation
at the opera
a once upon a time home
to big-titty strippers
selling Amway to repentant reptiles
crawling across sawdust floors
past the oyster shells
and muzzled yellow smoke
but
it isn't
it couldn't be
I don't know
do you know
last night's premier was free
gratis for those who wore
a morning coat
collar mounted firmly to chin?
I thought so
and so it went
a flash
a sigh
a confession
a bed made only to be undone
by the fat lady singing
with no sparkle
no shine
trying to get over
many Sunday afternoon thoughts
repeated on Monday morning
Brava!

Mind found, great news………………..
Riffs.
Opera with strippers might get me to the opera house.
Nothing else will.
“Tristan und isolde” in the nude.
I really don’t see why no one has thought of this before me. Or was it you?
Good news, re. the “baby” front, chuck.

HUGGGGGGGGG
after you turn down the lights
down low
way down
but it ain't easier to leave
when you return arrived
so confusing
I'm held in very great value by everyone I meet but you
'cause I've used my talents as I could, I've done some bad, I've done some good
I did a whole lot better than they thought I would so, c'mon and treat me like you should!
Because everybody loves me, baby, what's the matter with you?
tell me what did I do to offend you?
sunday afternoons
are ripe with thoughts
"last night's premier was free
gratis for those who wore
a morning coat"
(or was it a mourning coat?)
what a photo
?
