Subject: I Have This to Say About That
Don't those pollsters know
that married women
lie in the presence
of their husbands?
They mostly lie about
money and politics.
And sex. That, too.
They sneak shopping bags
in the back door.
If their husbands notice
something new,
they say, "What?
This ole thing?"
And when they pull
that poll booth curtain
closed, who's to know?
And white women, well,
they'll vote for a woman
or a black man
without flinching. And smile
while they do it. Just like
they do when asked
"Was it good for you, too,
honey?" "Why, yes,"
they say. "Yes."
