Jane



Wedding cake and silver tights
She steps out on the street lit night…
Sidewalk chalk can’t hide the rain
She jumps the cracks
Skips past the pain.
 ....
Merry Jane in Mary Janes
Platform shoes
On 5th and Main.
She passes by with silver thighs
Doesn’t even know my name.
 ....
A gallery of ethos
Her art’s on display
Assembling her thoughts
She’s got something to say.
 ....
Words spiked with wisdom
She drinks City life
Egos, Mosaics
Color her nights.
 ....
Merry Jane in Mary Janes.
Sapphire eyes…
Can’t hide the rain.
Silver streaks
Down her face…
She’s all dressed up
In weathered lace.
 ....
Merry Jane in Mary Janes
Sapphire eyes…
Don’t look away.
Merry Jane in Mary Janes
Lady Night
Your smile lights my way.
