====Two Worlds ====<br />
<poem><br />
Ervin Pike<br />
was what girls called <br />
a sweet boy<br />
safe to walk home with<br />
<br />
His hair curled white-trash long<br />
around his neck<br />
before it became high style<br />
He was too poor for a barber<br />
and hated home crock cuts<br />
<br />
the last time I saw Ervin in Oklahoma<br />
was in front of Big Muddy Mercantile<br />
He said his father was about<br />
ready to give up farming<br />
and head for California<br />
<br />
The next time I saw him<br />
was on Main Street in Merced 1937<br />
in front of the Merced Theater <br />
I didn't recognize him at first glance<br />
hair cut short-still shiny, thick--<br />
he had given up bib overalls<br />
for black dress pants and a silky shirt<br />
<br />
There was a girl with him<br />
slim as a reed<br />
with the blondest hair <br />
I ever saw<br />
so pretty she hurt my eyes <br />
<br />
I never let on to little Buster<br />
that I saw Ervin ahead of us<br />
We got our tickets<br />
and sat several rows back of them<br />
Once there was a space between<br />
patrons' heads<br />
and I saw Ervin kiss the girl<br />
