82 Hawaii MANA

DEAF-MUTE  DANCING  GIRL

                                      By Wayne Westlake


The hula dancing Hawaiian girl
with luau feet who couldn't hear
hugged herself
asking me without speaking
"How come I feel this way
 when the music pau?"


And for answering her
"Becuase you wear the cape
 of La'amaomao around your neck"
I caught a spear through the eye
and turned into a horse


Mounted by a dazzling Princess
gowned in red pa'u
with huge red hibiscus
in her long 'ehu hair
