Vintage

I am supposed to be immune,
inured by age,
sufficiently battered by events
and anger,
time and betrayal.

I am supposed to be
insusceptible
to the sight of you
walking towards me.

About this poem.

A love poem. Duh.

The painting is called “High Heels with Vintage Vibe”, by Mary Ann Duffy Godin. The photograph was taken at the Southern Vermont Arts Center in Manchester Vermont.
