"this is what you love: more people. you remember
to say 'of all the men I know' and 'your nice friend kimber'
but it wasn't always so. living in a big shoe and knotslips
in your bed the size of taxes [or texas? you don't read lips
as well you should] some hearing loss due to family
in your ears: homilies and hominy and decidedly no harmony
no wonder the bad seed topped your list of favorite flicks
having that brood crush you down into the mattress: you kicked
one fell out and the other nine said 'rollover, rollover.'
who could go to sleep with the sound of music? and the hot covers
now you only regret men unbedded. unwedded to your cheek-y
desire to lift strangers from taxis. or texas: why be picky?
but you've gone 'gee' in your ratings: shirley temple and madeline
volunteer work. neighborhood meetings. you even bring the gelatine"
