She entered the bank ahead of me.
Everything about her seemed too big.
Broad shoulders pinned in
a red, too tight jacket.
Stick-straight, short black skirt
Black pumps supported by
four inch high, thick square tall heels.
Calves wide, strongly muscled
Blond, coarse, dark-rooted hair ~
long, back combed, styled high,
dry and a bit wind blown.
Without the black pumps, she would be short, stocky and strong.
She turned briefly to speak quickly to her gentleman companion,
her round, smiling, and softly feminine face
in juxtaposition to her solid, stern and tailored stature.
She smiled brightly and held her head high ~
A woman animated and strong in herself.
“Creativity is that marvelous capacity to grasp mutually
distinct realities and draw a spark from their juxtaposition.”
~ Max Ernst
