meeting archy and mehitabel

this woman i know
calls her breasts by name
she calls her left breast
archy and her right
breast mehitabel
it s the kind of thing
that gets me talking
why because at night
one stays home typing
the other parties
because both your breasts
are the kind of things
journalists dream of
because they reflect
the times around them
while adding value
by commentary
she just studies me
her lips pursed tightly
and i think that s why
