An Old Smoothie
Melody wouldn't leave without Smoothie, the cat.
So she sat in blue bra and panties and beige
cowgirl hat, such outfit purpling equally in the
diving light.
Hetts took the dress from atop the Lego Italian
Villa, and handed her the ukelele after she finished
putting it on.
Her resolve about Smoothie vanished. She went
down to the cab.
The Frenchman showed up and Hetts gave him
the key.
Hetts could hear him enticing Smoothie in the dark
as he cautiously descended the grimy stairs with villa.
Some odd buzzes filtered down, and "I give you
Half and Half!"
That night he dreams of Smoothie as a one-eyed Calico.
Asking Benjamin at breakfast.
"Could be."
"I must establish that Smoothie is corporeal!"
"You've never established anything!"
"I...had Half and Half with cornflakes once."
"No one has ever questioned your daring."
“We should buy some.”
“Or virility!”
