THE LANCE
By beborah Forrest
ALL THAT GLITTERS IS NOT GOLD
Tlie old man smirks as she
Recites the sweet, strong poem,
from memory.
Who wrote it? No one knows?
According to the stereotype - -
Man.
Aha! Gotcha!
Woman, of course! Of Course
“Get out of the way of
the laurels.
They’re not for you”.
She recites calmly to the ceiling tiles,
Sound calmly queer.
Hidden belt buckle, and hiding glasses
Rest on the table.
“Self seeking” “Premature”
“Death is a high price to pay for fame.”
Stop resisting, old wo - man.
Why reject age?
It’s the only way, you know.
The Laurels will never rest
On your hair ^ray;
They may float quietly above,
sprinkled with your glitter.
by David Miller
GIRL WITH NO EYES
She speaks,
girl with no eyes,
of me.
Her black companion,
her charm,
soothes my thoughts
with promises of
Snninute delight,
5-second electricity.
Spent,
afternoons
of heart,
bracing up for
another
try at
unconscious
54ninute delight,
^«econd electricity.
Older,
remembering,
faces in darkness
climbing sunmuts
feathers
breaking
the fall of
S^ninute delict.
5-second electricity.
