BONNIE IN A DINER.
Some feller reckons he
Saw that Bonnie Parker
Girl in some diner in
Arkansas with some
Feller in a black suit
With a hat pushed to
The back of his head
And she sat there and
Smoked and said nothing
But looked around the
Place while the feller
Ordered fries & burgers
With two small side salads
And two white coffees
And no one else in the
**** diner place kind
Of recognized her face
Even though she was
Clothed in some old
Dress his grandma would
Have worn in her youth
With a beret stuck on her
Head and he felt like he
Ought to call the cops
And such but his mind
Kept telling him that that
There Parker girl was
Killed in an ambush
Back in 1934 so maybe
He got it wrong and she
Was just some girl who
Looked just like her and
So he didn't call the cops
But just sat there watching
Her eat and drink and smoke
Hanging in with his flapping
Ears in case she spoke but
She never did she just sat
And stared around the place
With a small half-moon
Smile on her ghostly face.
Older poem of mine I thought needed an airing.
