who used to be Vincent
is working
behind the deli
at the local
grocery store,
she/he
has long red hair
now
and suddenly a pair
of breasts
that Dolly Parton
would blush over.
a pound
of Honey Baked Ham
and a quarter pound
of Provolone cheese,
i tell Violet,
and a medium sized
cup
of shrimp salad.
he/she tugs on his beard
and says,
no problem in a new
high pitched voice.
big game today?
he asks.
yup.
this could be our year,
he says.
maybe, i tell him. maybe.
oh and throw
in a couple of those dill pickles
too, floating
in that jar.
