old mexican divers
on the dock with gray hairs—
viejo rico
with their young
diving lovers
on the clock, the sexy stares of—
nuevo rico
scuba suited pro
she’s from the city, pale
where’d she learn to dive?
did he teach her? did he pay?
the other darker, with the rich accent
must be from the country, she’s a pro, a
nuevo rico
she laughs at the sun
stretching her wet suited butt near my face and
the gray hairs lick their lips—
viejo rico
nodding at old mexican divers
I wipe sweat from my gray hairs
and they look at my wife
who’s looking delicioso
the gray hairs lick their lips—
rico canadiense?
no, me no!
