He Dropped It


i trusted him

he smelled sweet and musky

like a happy child

i trusted him

he smiled true

he spoke soft

he held firm

i trusted him

he kept me from the buzzards

and the coyotes hanging ’round

i trusted him

but in the end

when it came down to it

when i formed an opinion

when it really counted:

i gave him a piece of my mind

and he dropped it

I am retired from the public school system. I create magic wands and spells, write mediocre poetry and the occasional freelance magazine article; research local history and family genealogy; I’m an activist and keep in touch with friends, family and archenemies on Facebook, Twitter, What’s App and Word Press. I'm a Fiipina-Cajun troublemaker and trickster. I'm feeling as invincible as Keith Richards these days. Fuck is my favorite word.
