Secret Amour
more important than the person.
Delilah puts forth a list of three.
Hortense asserts that all smell, but
Del quickly attributes that to Irish
Spring Deodorant!
Hortense’s old dance partner,
and present husband
(team of Northy and Hortsy)
snorts “Melody, huh? Be like
dipping your wick in ice cubes!”
(Pretty Patter and Dizzy Dancing!)
Did a stumbling Buck and Wing,
then, for irony.
(New York and Paris!)
Left him scarlet!
(PARIS, TEXAS THAT IS!!!!!)

Other
I know it’s a statistical impossibility, but everyone
else in the waiting room of Baltimore’s Amtrak Station
is Chinese.
When my New York train is called, I gather my things
and join the line going down the stairway to the tracks.
They’ve beaten me to it, the old people the fastest!
Those lingering about the rear look like menacing
wrestlers, but are most polite.
“We ask, please, you get other train.”
