FAME

We were at dinner in SoHo
and the couple at the next table
rose to go. The woman paused to say
to me. I just wanted you to know
I have got all your cookbooks
and I swear by them !

I managed
to answer her, Ma’am,
they’ve done you nothing but good !

which was perhaps immodest
of whoever I am.
