One among five faces
centered
your lips full
unpuckered
swatches of flesh jagged
brushes of White
exposed
no black cocktail dress,
no red lace thong
naked lids closed
or barely raised, slivered lash
clearly his best proportion, no others
soften
those manmade angles,
no smile lines crows feet symbol of years standing
ABSTRACT
the only left glance
all rest pale to your complexion
nose defiant, arches browed,
chin tilted away
men on either side
s p o t l i g h t
brown wisp of bang
curled out from ear, reaching up for other faces along
this plastered
wall
