Blues Night at Smokey Joe'sA Poem by The Musings of Mary H.
He used to pollute my entrance
Coming in from Smokey Joe’s
On a reverential Thursday night
Spiced rums and Havana cigars
Sweat across his makeshift brow
Sweet kiss whispers in my ear
Making promises of our own
Four walls, a dog named Ralph,
Laced-yellow crib for a little one
I tell him I just want to sing a few
Notes for those who lost everything
And kind few who gained nothing.
