The mirada fuerte

Roy Rogers and hat

riding a horse named trigger
both made a pass at me

but i couldn't fall for that.

i watched them fix their gaze

a voracious stare it was
and regardless of age or sex

it could last for several days!

an unsuspecting gent

or a woman with two girls
and a quiver in their step

straight-backed or bent:

still the eye came around

with a sly rapacious grin
and never failed to work its magic

silently or with sound
