Ghosts for My Poster
Dorian hung on my parlour wall
Damian lounged in the cellar
Dagwood papered my entryway hall
With the ghost of Helen Keller
My age there was suspended by a thread
I could not tell if I was quick or dead
Was I flouncy like Ginger or dapper like Fred?
Would Marilyn blow me a kiss?
And like Cary and Clark, was there hair on my head?
The young give nostalgia a miss
