"Hostess"
A smile, a pale, tiny hand held out,
a weightless, empire-waisted, white
minidress, worn above black tights
and leather boots.
Thought: Wow, she's a good dresser.
Is it permissible to believe that
one may float hearts simply
by endeavoring to be polite and kind,
and to create a calm and lovely image
of oneself?
Well: Consider it another miracle, then.
