"Wild Thing"
I can still remember seeing our shoes standing together
in our youth, "married" right out of high school
your pair right next to mine May honeymoon no no not June.
Funny how you remember strange things at strange times.
I remember my make up bag, how I always felt
the things I owned were a part of me, a mark of me,
as much as the blood that made me warm,
my stuff ,my pond's cold cream like my grandma
and mother had used before me, me mixed with them only
a brand new creature of my own day, now I look at my
daughter the same way, we are very different "me and her",
but in a way very much the same, but today is her time
in the sun, her time to shine in the season that is time, some times good,
and then at other times so unkind.
I wish I could have given her more, I wish I had been given
more myself, it is very bad being poor, but at odd times I remember
shoes on the floor.
I think of dreams and lost thoughts and billy yeats with no money
for eggs. I got a doll from Russia today the sixth of June,
she was dressed in a golden dress with tiny white pearls
and it rained, sun mixed with loud clouds.
And on your birthday today, I thought of you, the love
I never really knew and it made me rather blue.
