(103) June 6, 2010: Stalin's Girl

STALIN'S GIRL

Two cups and a saucer
   Was all she was wearing,
Out walking with Chaucer O. Mega Three Herring,

Her fetish Komodo,
   Misnomered by Stalin,
Her friend from Kyoto who’s half Guatemalan,

A quarter Icelandic,
   A quarter to seven
Each morning eccentrically looks up to heaven

Repeating a passage
   From Ovid in Latin,
Then down to her cleavage like folds of pure satin,

And bows to her beauty,
   And kisses her shoulder,
And makes it his duty to have and to hold her.
