LA, you say?
to me that's okay
to some, declasse,
but hey.

I know it's cliche
to say
that in LA
they're mostly gay
& also that they
smell of oil of olay
to some dismay.

enjoy your stay,
wear a negligee
touch, & play,
make your protege
neigh
& purr like an itten-kay
command, & obey.
predator, prey
meeting midway,
intimate as an x-ray
sweet as Beaujolais
solid as a Chevrolet
classic as Olivier
not just a lay
per se
but cinema verite
twisting your nerves like macrame
a Passion Play
a kick like Pele
turning your mind to pate---

anyway,
just to say,
have fun in LA.
