upstairs maids -- Pearls,
Malvinas, Merles
'n' Mallorys --
who come, then, quick-
ly, go, through Mich-
elangelo-
hung galleries.*
None nun; none crone.
Yet each one's grown
(each tummy show'in'
its calories)
so flush that they’ve,
though blushing, waived
all wages – tips
and salaries.
* Pace, Prufrock.
