Image for the poem On the Scent

On the Scent

 
alone at curbside table
slash of tawdry-red lipstick
parted, pouty mouth
sensuous
movie star superiority

coffee vapor tendrils
stroke her face as she sips
sets demitasse down
secretly smiles
as men's eyes fondle her

fedora brim shades her brow
nylons swish
cross of legs
black-leather raincoat
like skin

stands, sniffs air, bitch-like
musky scent
stimulates primitive man
male pheromone
her destiny
