T-Town
bus stopped in T-Town
I needed coffee. a hot meal
crossed the road to the diner
cute waitress. real cute
polished prettyness, like an angel
I figured a devil lurked inside
her nametag said Kitten
tattoos. fairies & gardens
butterflys. beckoned me to stroll
linger. ease my weariness, maybe
she asked what’s my pleasure
I grinned my moody grin
my pleasure’s not on the menu
she smiled, sorta
better start with coffee, stranger
eggs & hash browns are on special
she brought coffee & touched my hand
I warned her. be careful, Kitten
you’ll get your pretty fur tangled
she flashed her killer eyes
I’m not afraid of you, mister
we talked a little
we talked a lot
her road had been tough
bumps & ruts
littered with tears, broken hearts
snakebit dreams
men who held her. then walked away
the bus pulled out
she warmed my coffee
touched my hand again
smiled her Kitten smile
all of a sudden we’re lovers…

Something tells me Kitten is going to be singing "What's a Woman" by Vaya con dios again very soon!
Two planets colliding in a galaxy of need. Gotta love synchronicity.

Kitten sounds like a dreamboat, and she'd more than earn my tip. Excellent drop by at the diner. Could I have fries with this?

"polished prettyness, like an angel

JFeddeler, absolutely enjoyed the dark twist you added here at the beginning and not at the end - hats off to you. Secondly, and IMO, waitresses are to be envied as they have seen it all and heard it all which makes them valuable creatures in all aspects of a relationship. . .xoxo, Devlin;)
