Why Is This Woman Smiling?

I was at the doctor's office

They had a poster of the Mona Lisa

and the caption underneath it read:

“Why is this woman smiling?”

Well, it wasn't because she was over 50

and had yearly mammograms

It was because she was 20 something

and had nightly mammograms

from her boyfriend's hands

It's because she can still eat

chocolate and have multiple orgasms

She is smiling because

she has no paranoia

or worries and has never

heard a politician speak

ever in her life

and that is what we call good karma

and sweet good luck

She is smiling because

she knows something we

have forgotten in our rush

to get to the adult world

And she is smiling because

she still has a life among toys
