cocktail heels sharp as tacks watch your feet every step the green mile you could hear a pin drop (or was that a pearl earring?) the lipstick on her teeth smiles at you. skin so creamy it’d feel right at home in a cup o’ joe free that poor hair from ******* so the red sea comes tumbling down her shoulders just ignore the diamond on her finger— it’s merely a suggestion. that dress smooth black and form-fitting follow the zipper towards the small of her back now emerging from the chrysalis madame butterfly nice clothing like hers looks better on the carpet.
