thinking ourselves
alone,
pilgrims appeared,
measuring the earth
with their bodies
divas scoffed
at the senseless bowing
others reached out
threw confetti
tried to
stop them
at the block party
undeterred,
the supplicants
continued
we watched
them go
and headed
back to the
party girls.
dedicated to birthday party girl Patsy/Payutsy/Pat C/Daley, my friend who I have known for almost my whole life (since FOUR YEARS OLD) whose birthday is today. Happy Birthday Patricia June Daley Noll!
