ovals and chandeliers
prisms in the window
child’s play
toothless grin
hapless face
wandered too far
fell into the drink
got drunk
stayed that way
last chance for happiness
he pirated the answers
when he couldn’t think for himself
she was undecided
cross with him
for making her wait
while he played horseshoes
with a man in a polka dot shirt
dogs barked and birds flew away
the grass grew at least an inch that day
she braided his hair and chastised him
he ate quietly and smiled
hoping it might appease her

This tawdry audrey sounds like a complicated character. She will inspire you to write many other poems I'm sure. Thanks for sharing.
