Evening In Paris



I could have been braver

when Night In Paris was a fad

and he gave me a blue velvet box

that took half his month’s wages

at Lowe’s garage.  It took courage

to date a guy from “The Other Side of The River”:

the Catholic bank where his little sins

could be paid for with a few prayers

but mine would strike me forever

from the book of believers.



Check her out.
