Mom had a green wool suit and Sundays 
she wore the same.
I noticed the suit repeat in church
the next week and the next 
the tweed the same.
I wanted mom to have another suit 
more than one.
A boyfriend visited at our house
they sat together in church
Chuck had Fred Flintstone’s shadow beard
wide shoes and intelligence.
In Springfield Ohio
with a suit and a Chuck
I was vexed.
