Aristocratic riches
thousands sipping martinis
a thousand thumbs
fingering around a neighbor’s back pocket,
popularity disguised as queens and fast livers
what, the Women’s Movement’s at stake?
well, how many warriors
man or human
can jump the net
after riding television Rose Bowl floats
then later when interviewed
seriously come off
about these mis-matched games?
