On the high cliff highway
The clouds water the sun
She climbs
She turns
A 57 Chevy in her hands
Chrome & red brake plastic
Turquoise
&
Cream
Gleaming leather a horn a freedom walk
The ocean peace breezes
Climbing
Turning
Her starched white blouse
& perfectly placed hair either side of her cheeks
Rouge
Pensive
Her straight black skirt below the knee length
There the Venus de Milo
Climbing
&
Turning
Into her own imagining
The music Joni Mitchell
Said
