Secondhand Treasure

Cadi Russell-Sauve

Waiting patiently on the dusty shelf

At Burien’s musky Value Village

An old unscratched record waits by herself,

Immune to yellow-tag bargain pillage.

 

Her jacket is faded and sides worn soft

Yet her cover still seventies striking -

My gaze is held; I raise the album aloft.

Now here is cover art just to my liking.

 

A graceful figure in a temptress’ pose

Wearing baubles, a gypsy skirt in gold

Afore a backlit black background she flows

I wonder why this record has not sold.

 

Glanced at again for a sight brash and racy

On her near naked breast – glittering gold pasties!

It's Cadi so you know it's good!

Cadi and Lianne lay out what was cool and not so cool when all the academic librarians got together last month.
