Images

       I

In this cafe bar,

Pavarotti and periwinkles.

People reading,

sipping tea.

Ice rattling in tall glasses.

Humming,

Half sleeping,

Half dreaming.

Page one.

      II

Greyhound station.

A pink doll buggy.

A big stuffed kangaroo.

A bright red shellac suitcase.

Two women in lampshade hats

wearing gold suede shoes,

entering Gate #5

          III

A cocktail glass  

atop the Satin Doll

blinks pink

as Starr,

a red-headed stripper

dances in a south Tucson warehouse.
