Coinstar

by Linda Fuller

I used to know a girl named Penny
pretty little thing but she’d nickel and dime
her own grandma. This was down in
the French Quarter, where we’d dance
to Zydeco and listen to 50 Cent. He’s good
but I’ll bet you dollars to donuts
he couldn’t hit a high C note
like Yma Sumac did
under a thousand million stars.
