Fetch: Sexy Walks In: A Poem by Pepper Baiij for Gerry Clifford


Sexy walks in
And he
Doesn’t look like the cover of GQ
He isn’t tall or muscle-bound
He’s not decked out in the latest fashion
He really hasn’t any idea
Of the fire he ignites
Like a million megaton bomb
Boom, Baby!
**************

Sexy walks in
And honestly
He’s a quiet little mouse
A shy little thing that most women
Wouldn’t pay the least bit of attention
They don’t know what they’ll miss
But I know that his kiss
Would start a fire in me
That will burn forever
*******************

Sexy walks in
And he doesn’t have any idea
That he has stolen my heart
That I’d do anything to be his lover
But I want so much more
Than undercover passion
I want to be his forever
Beyond the end of time
I want to be his only love
*******************

Sexy walks in
And walks out with my heart

Monody For The Grounded Traveler

The gates of the cemetery where there is a memorial bench with my father's name inscribed

His colleagues didn’t understand him or his work, yet they were always offering him suggestions for how to do it better.

He taught liberal arts disciplines in a school where science was law and letter

He was often angry and unhappy during his first year at the college

It seemed his colleagues really didn't respect him or his knowledge

Over the years his colleagues changed, and his situation improved as well

He no longer felt such a burning, pressing need to reform and rebel

Sadly, he never got to fulfill his dreams of travel

Shortly after retirement, his plans all came unraveled

A stroke felled him just four days after his birthday 2004

The restless wanderer within couldn't go roaming any more

He died late in 2010 after several years decline

I hope he now is traveling to every place he had in mind

And then some.

For my dad
