" In a Way "...

" In a Way "

In a way
under the counter
cookies crumbling
cool as a cucumber

plucky coverages
of daily dozens
getting one's dander up

cloak-and-dagger
not worth a damn
sneaking past
fluffed-up arm chairs
in a trance

although perhaps
weepingly compared
to miracles with masks
with harlequin hair
at foots of stairs

toting straw baskets
glancing cracks in plaster
lying on divans...
