Poor Math

She smokes and puns and swears
pokes my ego in all the right ways…
pokes my ego in all the right ways…
And
She is equal parts raunch and charm
mixed better than the drinks
at the Whistler…
And
She walks with a country gait
along the El platforms, trains
lighting her hair in their sparks…
And
She has good legs with better banter
warm, dark eyes, the best laugh
and freckles like a star chart
across her nose…
…altogether, what’s not to love?
Plenty, man.
Plenty.
