YO BLONDIE
A solitary female
walker
down the factory street
as the workmen
call out 
                     yo blondie
                    breasts are beautiful
                    if freed to bounce

trying to step
naturally
despite spastic ankles
knocking together

                    yo blondie
                   I'm good with my hands
                   on the job
                   and pump slow
                   steel

grim
with straight-ahead
eyes

                    yo blondie
                    at least you could smile

I try to calculate
how many years
I have left
to wonder
if these are compliments
