Hodgepodge

 

A nearly empty Friday

Floating a crazy collage

Of noisy children and

Giddy grandmothers out

Of control, as loose and

Logical as cats with a

Ball of yarn, the day

Sweetened by the dark

Haired woman sipping

Espresso quickly and

Leaving too soon in a

Blur of red dress and

Wonder, whispers and

Waves of thought drifting

By from the psychics

Next door, bits and pieces

Of yesterday’s conversation

With the long haired beauty

Awash in holiday excitement,

Confused by the egos of

Friends all vying for a taste

Of her body.
