Conversation In A Donut Shop Poem by Shane Markie

Conversation In A Donut Shop

' a woman dead
is always good
for morning chitchat

over coffee
and a dish
of donut holes.'~Wendy Rose~

murdered woman
off the reservation
love triangle between

me and her? Sure!
& another cholo
from the barrio

we had it
out he &
I until Navaho

tribal police showed
their suntanned faces
we quit feuding

quit feuding
quit feuding
she wasn't white

or Chicana or
even Mexican but
off the reservation

she ran a
5 star Chinese
Asian fusion restaurant
