Dressed in Their Summer Clothes

I see a rusty door and want it painted black

This cinder block building used to be red until my man did as the Rolling Stones implored and painted it black.

We still call it "the red building," though, and that makes me happy.


No boots anymore now that the sun is back


I see the dog walk by dressed in her winter coat


I have to feed the cat before I get to go


I see lines on a shirt and none are painted black


With flowers and my love and nothing that I lack
