a woman in a blue car
wearing a blue skirt
listening to the blues
window down – wind
she sings along a long long long way
words wrong, she hates
the smell of cow manure
but her window stays
down, she watches the blue
sky become endless, she
wears a puffy cloud
-white top. her father
died years ago. her mother
died more years ago.
she has no money.
she stops singing.
she does not cry.
