_ Poetry Challenge Day 71 (Tue Dec 14)_
In Central Oregon
men wear Wrangler jeans,
so do their women.
I try to fit in,
but my relaxed-fit stretch jeans
are a dead give-away.
There are other signs of my displacement,
I worry about my pronunciation of “Terrebone.”
(You try it.)
This could be much ado about nothing.
despite the strangeness at times,
I like it here. It’s beautiful.
