the post modern cubist

the waiter
unfamiliar with
Picasso's penchant
for paying for
meals by sketching
little pictures
onto napkins
said, and what's
this, a bull
with a woman's head
and a bird
with the eyes
of a child.
where's your money?
and this other
napkin, ice cubes
with legs?
a woman's breast
on a chicken.
cash only, buster.
my little sister
can make these
drawings, now let's
see some dough.
