14,193. ASIAN ANKLES

ASIAN ANKLES
Three fisherman down by the
sea make me think of jade
warriors : Odd little men
bent over so carefully; like
boll weevils in cotton spray.
I've probably just read too
much  -  every little thing
I see makes me think of 
something else because
my reference list has grown
too large : quartz and diodes,
battery cables across thin
wires, Japanese women and
their funny umbrellas. Soft
cloth, like the whimpering
tears of a lonesome old dog.
