Mavae
Bonjour
Your eyes are beautiful-
here’s a flower.
I have eyes for you
but eyes are all
eyes eyes eyes
for your seductive thighs.

Mavae
Rouge is a ripe tomato
at the same time,
we could both say, “Oh.”
French girl
Mavae
Crepes, kiesh, and sheesh, you don’t smoke hashish!
French girl
Mavae
On your phone
You could pick this bone.

Mavae
bonne nuit
Maybe it’s just not meant to be.
French girl
Mavae
You buy canned tomatoes
when we have them locally
and
in season!
French girl
Mavae
what’s the reason
that you buy ground beef?
It’s in the basement
in a deep freeze.
French girl
Mavae
Reality T.V.?
What about the beauty
of the honey bee.
French girl
Mavae
She fills me with want
that is not for me
Holding on and letting go, as your
ebb turns into flow-
Mavae, I’m glad to see you go.
I should have spoken more truely than rudely.
You left the house a mess
I never told you what I expect.
Begrudgingly sweeping your mess,
any expectations were left to rest.
Lessons learned-
Expectations are fine.
Speak your mind.
Call your dear friend
Amy.
