Cracked

Sears Big Book

back-to-school,

eyeing short shorts,

mother of all bikinis,

Coppertone tans--

Noting

hippybottoms & thick ankles

makes me look the way I feel,

gauzy wing-sleeved blouse

doubling

as diversion--

Averting eyes

I fly

out

Izy asked the Real Toads to write a poem containing a favorite line from a movie. The line “Makes me look the way I feel” is spoken by Fran Kubelik (played by Shirley MacLaine) to C.C. Baxter (Jack Lemmon) in The Apartment.
