Friday, June 26, 2009: On the Street…Trench Tie, Milano

The Rules

King me, she said gleefully.
The clatter of checker on top of checker,
Her delight in playing by the rules
And winning. That’s what I remember.

    I bet she remembers some other raucous tales from her youth in that jacket! ;)

    Hope you're well.

    thea.

    love this! the opening is so wonderful! "King me", and it sets such a gorgeous pace for the rest of the poem.
