A real hottie
Scrumptious
Mutters the little

Promptly
A rocket in your
Trouser pocket

If I had
Polished
Rhymes now
On hand, like
I know something
Else
That’ll tickle
Your palate
And the likes of me
Do indeed always
Think of Heinrich
Karl Bukowski
Born 1920
In Andernach
And whatever else
He sputtered about
Went to hell
In L.A.

The idea
To light

In a rush
In a puff

Stockings, so
Smooth

Slippery .
