Sage Sweetwater bringing you the Upper Tier in lesbian poetry


there were few women
left standing, the firebrand
homeless, crouched on the
curb, dipping her fingers in a
can of fruit cocktail, spousal abuse
written on the blurb on the back of
that can,

I saw her standing there,

I looked at her, she looked
at me, "honey, come with me,
around the corner, where the
pink walls have greenback labels
on caviar, pink champagne, and green
felt blackjack tables,"

Madam of the legalized Elko
Cathouse used her proselytizing
charms, to hook me, then Waddie
Mitchell cowboy poet's voice, "When
They've Finished Shipping Cattle in the
Fall - "

I made the better choice,

credit card in my
purse, Madam's Chanel
No. 5 led me around the
corner, "come on in, sugar,
I'll assign you a room you'll
never forget, silk sheets and a
cat o' nine for the men who pay
to keep them in line,

I saw her standing there,

Madam of the legalized Elko
Cathouse used her proselytizing
charms, to hook me, then Waddie
Mitchell cowboy poet's voice, "You
Haven't Sold Your Saddle Yet - "

I made the better choice,

instead, I walked through
the door to my independence
at the motel behind the legalized
cathouse, no battered women's shelter
in sight, "no visitor's in your room!" the
male cashier said to me - already black
and blue, self-confidence bruised, humiliating
thing for him to say to me, the whore insinuation,
then Waddie Mitchell cowboy poet's voice -
"Judgement Day - "

and then I hear Johnny Cash,
Ring of Fire,
Firebrand Lesbian Novelist,
written on the blurb of the book,
I made the better choice...

Madam of the Elko Cathouse
used her proselytizing charms,
to hook me...
