in 1956 girls had long hair
tied in pony-tails blonde
redhead & brunette & raven
haired in bright angora,
colorful capris, bullet bras &
capezios; swiveling hips to
Dave Brubeck; hot sweater
girls; different breed of
green-eyed superstar; pin-up
classes teaching burlesque
& witchcraft to beat girls
swinging into the sixties as
mothers, daughters & teachers;
Sally sadly slow in the head;
she like Einstein is a stripping
beat girl genius dancer; her
bf the lonely poet suicide;
everyday is Saturday once
the beat girls march in protest
naked w/o guns for children
