O. FOLEY

Prose and Poetry

All the Widows Weep

happy face
tall slender body
reach for navels

two pear shapes
walk their poodles
at sunrise

the wrinkled face
body shape of the crescent moon
steps on a grapefruit

broken bodies
wait in the club house
for the casino carriage

at the end of day
the bugler plays taps
all the widows weep
