Narcissism

Narcissism comes
at the wrong time in life,
comes when your young body
is easy to love,

I heard love was running out

So, I thought,
I’ll be out of love?
or nearly?
I have none in the bank?

Oriental Poppies

All of my red-headed girls
Dropped their tresses last night
On the lawn and stand bald-headed
Looking back at me.  I smile
