Somewhere Between a
Dixie Cup™and a Big
Gulp




Shopped for a bra today,

I’d rather shop for shoes.

Victoria’s Secret™ is still one

‘cause I’m clueless.

What a bust.


Room spun ‘round,

so confused.

Miracles, wonders, angels,

flying around my head,

such lust.


Fluff and satin,

boas and lace,

teddies bare,

were in that place.

A real must.


Somewhere ‘tween

a Dixie cup™

and a Big Gulp,™

Can I be on Victoria’s Honor roll with a C
Plus?

Senior Discount




“But we’ll get free drinks,” he said.

I rolled my eyes.

Didn’t care if it meant super size

Didn’t care if it saved me a buck.

It’s just that admitting it sucked.

I have panty hose older than her.

The sweet thing who took my order

For burger and fries

Who stands there with those doe shaped
eyes

Looking at him who is so open,

Then at me, who stands there moping.

“Get your senior discount,” I said

as I stood in face so red.

She looked at me and then my spouse-

“Both your drinks are on the house.”
