Eye asked Dr Schweitzer
if I should have
“Two” X Husbands
and Eye answered
My Self:
ONE is bad enough.
On My Dresser
when I was little
I displayed a black & white
photograph of My Father
dressed as George Washington
for a costume party —
I remember His Girlfriend
as Martha
showing Me Her Skirts —
all Her Skirts
right down to Her Short Lace Slip —
I remember The Layers
as She counted
like the lime-green prom dress
I think I’ll buy
from The Salvation Army
to dance My Dance of Hip Hop
with arms revealed
legs concealed
Eye understand that Dr William Hunter Blair
does not consider Himself
“A Bad Guy.”
This is how He sees His Self,
therefore He is NOT
a “Bad Guy.”
Eye can forgive Him.
I can call The Truce because
Eye know He can
and will
Live With Himself.
Eye sat in My Mother’s
yellow butterfly chair
thrown out by
My First husband
tanned legs crossed —
broad arms crossed —
downward sideways glance
with My Father’s Gold Metal
around My Neck
& My Red Tank Top
bra-less
Is Reformation possible?
When Hell Freezes Over —
Can Eye make that
Happen?
Dr Blair has four children:
His oldest daughter is a year older than me
and I don’t know if she is dead or alive.
His second daughter is a very close friend of mine.
His son I guess I am still on speaking terms with —
and his fourth I just wish Happy Birthday.
Dr Blair has nine grandchildren —
three of them I have never met.
He has at least fourteen great grand children
and he doesn’t even want to know that they exist.
The Last Time Eye Saw
Dr Blair’s Sapphire/Diamond
“Wedding Ring”
was between the fingertips
of a moving lady
Dr Blair
took Me
nowhere
Eye Dance My Dance
Eye Write My Right
Eye Paint My House
Eye Walk My Walk
And Eye Have My Ultimate Companion
Eye laugh at Arrogance —
or do I?
