Business Done, In The Tub Poem by James McLain

Business is Naked In The Tub;
With the Water running Warm,
with both lids up on the loo.
Real Estate is more than that rush.
As she digs in and talks and slings
golden hash and it's lumpy at times.
I never saw this type of business done,
even being married as long as i was.
It was always distracting to me, watching
those fingers disappear and the nails
at the ends could cut steak by themselves.
It was always amazing and thus distracting to me,
and she slung it like hash and seldom missed.
She was always doing things that increased
my awareness of things around her,
I always watched each new customers eyes
as she receives compliments for her nails.
Now when i see people, i think of what it is
that most people do and i know that most people
are even more capable of doing at least some
small measure buisness.
