dVerse Poets – Meeting The Bar – Middles and Turns

“All things truly wicked start from innocence.” Ernest Hemingway
But Her Smile She played everything in a minor key, a high pitched dirge for Sunday sins, her primness a badge of spinsterish anxiety and determined moral salvation wrapped in tweed and ancient hairpins, no one saw it, but her smile belied her Friday nights of wanton vixen over pints and chips and sly thigh, her ancient shiver of sigh. ©Paul Vincent Cannon
