POEM: "To A Grizzled Tranny Gentleman"



To A Grizzled Tranny Gentleman

                                      for Kay Perry

But you cannot trump it
unless you replace one earring
in bedecked ear with a bell
and ring it till lunchtime

(today was a soup kitchen)
to set before a magic herring
and a pair of tiny chopsticks
as the bell says love from china
and the fish is moving off the plate
but the cat says study gravity
till the dining room is cleared
of consumption and of waste.
