today's poem is French Woman Convention 1940

French Woman Convention

1940

 

At the drugstore counter

I give my thuringer

and home fries

to a hungry cowhand

who needs a shave

 

A clutch of French women

smartly-tailored in suits

arrive tall and haughty

to meet and study

in parks and hotels

 

My hungry friend and I

get stiff suits and shave

and we grab up deals

for accommodating

these stately violets

 

Money cascades and we grab

the State Park lodge

to start booking

rooms and events

for French groups - bonanzas

 

In splendid new duds

we introduce

frozen French Fries

to the hungry millions

and cash in

 

Vive la France!
