| In the airport
I am waiting in my black
slinky jumpsuit, sexy, showing off my
slim body - slim from abstaining
not the real me
He is coming,
due any minute,
that younger than me lover
hair curly imp-like
cocky
Do i love him?
i donÕt know, but
i know i want him to see me
slinky, sexy
in my black silk jump suit
and I hope
absence
makes the heart
grow fonder
My mother traveled on airplanes,
while
my father sad eyed, dutiful
waited
when she came home,
she could be bubbly
and warm
and delighted to squeeze
her soft children in her arms
and kiss him
with her big red lipstick
mouth
she stayed only
a few weeks
each time
