Miriam |
Miriam was kind of homely |
Kind of ugly in the face and hands |
She had nice eyes |
She had nice breasts and hands and feet but she was |
Small |
And dark |
And hurt |
All over |
She was buff from lifting things |
Secretly she played the tambourine |
She had nice rhythm |
She dreamed to play the drums but she was |
Poor |
And overworked |
And tired |
Miriam bussed to work each day |
And hummed over cold soup at night |
Miriam worked for minimum wage |
And hadn’t had a boyfriend since that |
Drug addled fling |
She had sold her television |
Saved her pennies for a weekly quart |
Of milk and lotto ticket |
Just in case her luck should change to |
Good |
Or slightly |
Less |
Than bad |
Miriam was kind of homely |
Kind of ugly in the face and hands |
She had nice eyes |
She had nice breasts and hands and feet |
