Mimi in Miami

after irwin died
mimi
asked me if i wanted
a fur coat
for my girlfriend, or
my wife.
she had them 
hanging on racks
in the garage
ready to be given away.
her trip to miami
was pending.
red fox and mink.
black bear.
beaver.
long coats, short.
a stole or two.
expensive and old.
the dust of time in the air.
go on, she said.
take a look.
take one.
i can't wear them 
down there.
