CAPITALIST EYES
  
                              for Laura M. 
  
When you catch me red-handed -- 
  
as in I was 
only lonely -- 
  
admiring a Georgia O'Keefe. 
  
Pull the pants back up and say: 
"I walked down the street, 
tried to look neat, and pretended 
to remember my name." 
  
As in relief. 
  
Your hand 
moves over me.
