Suffice it to say
the director of Musica Angelica
was terribly deficient
directing a car
to the North Long Beach
parking lot
That car was driven by me
who invented ten profanities
for the director
before finally boarding
the "free bus"
that transported us
to the Concert destination
in downtown Los Angeles
The "free bus"
was actually
a limousine service
boarded by two CarPeos
and seven women
whose average age
was 75
Their soft and delicate chatter
sounded like the dust
on valuable antiques
That my fellow passenger
was celebrating her 39th birthday
was never brought to the attention
of the chattering antiques
All the chatter
seemed to imply
"My antiques are
more valuable than yours"
Mrs. CarPeo's 39th birthday
was a result of surgery
performed
on her birth certificate
The unspoken implication
of the antique chatter was
Our seven husbands
love their arm candy
The driver of the "free bus"
was dressed as a chauffeur
and he got us to the church
in time for 2 1/2 hours
of Musical Nirvana
