Daphne

Erren Kelly

tells me about the time
she met madonna
she was a concierge
at the fairmont hotel
in san francisco

as she gets into her story
she takes off a long black skirt
and then a cream
colored blouse
which reveals a black bra that
looks like she’s
hiding two baldheaded
men

daphne tells me
she saw maddonna
on the elevator
said she was jealous
because her hair
was blonder than hers
“bitch!” maddonna hissed like a cat
and then walked away

daphne just laughed
with a cat ate the
canary grin
on her face

daphne then takes
off her black
bra
and her breasts spill
out
like a man free from
a prison break

sometimes before our encounters
we’ll have coffee at farley’s
and she’ll tell me about
the movie she saw
or the book she’s reading

sometimes, we’ll go walking at ocean beach
or on the embarcadero
and hold hands and kiss
for no reason at
all

she’s worth every dollar

daphne went back to being a brunette
i lay next to her in
bed
and run my fingers through
her hair
her face is a map of
israel

once, a friend of mine from jordan
refused to wait on people at
a banquet
because they were
jewish

daphne is 5'8 and is
as tall as her
lovers

she shows me what she calls
“the arab part of her body”
a fleshy prodiguous
posterior

dapne jokes the only reason
that congressman made
fun of michelle obama’s butt
is because he secretly wants
a black woman
and can’t have one

daphne is proud of her
back woman ass

she left college 3 credits short
of a batchelor’s degree in sociology
she tells me “why bother going back?
god gave me a good body
i’m just using it the best way
i can”

i don’t pay daphne to sleep with me
i pay her to leave me alone
