KIRBY WRIGHT Sirens in Santa Cruz Girls, blonde and delicious, Drift their new season From the veranda Over to the bar. This foursome makes music With microminis waving And stilettos Tap tapping the tiles. The bartender Arms them with margaritas. Their tan mouths Are filled with pearls. Men play the background shy, Not knowing how to converse With sudden goddesses. The girls whisper and giggle About a Clooney look-alike Alone at the end of the bar. Tongues pass through scarlet lips To lick the salt from glasses. |
