O Lucy!
My heart beats like a machine
For you--
Dear Lucy,
  I've kept it in a box
And attached some wires;
Now I hear it ticking,
And it's driving me bananas
Bananas!

O dearest Lucy--
I dream of your red lips
Their scarlet vision
Biting into my psych:
  I'm not subtle.

Dear Lucy,
I charge by the hour;
My fee
Is your gaudy pink bauble
Your inverted daffodil-

Lucy!
Come to me
Arise with my tide
Upon the beach umbrella shoreline.

--Stephen Martin, 7/31/19
