Factory girls
in coffee stained blouses
with cigarette burns
listen to transistor radios
as they ride city buses
into the park.
Working the lines
they sit on grey stools
with their feet off the ground,
count hose clamps
and put them in cartons.
Their boyfriends drive forklifts
in circular routes, load skids
with boxes transport them to semis.
They bluster in button-fly jeans
that show off their bulges
and wink at their women
each time they go by.
On break the girls go outside
and sit on wire benches
with their backs
to the wall.
The company President
squares a long skinny tie
set in a tab collar,
walks to his car,
a bright red Corvette
with convertible top.
The girls are amused
by the way his suit
shines in the sun,
make colorful remarks
that imagine the size of his dick.
