CHOOSING THE RIGHT ADJECTIVE TO GO WITH THE RIGHT NOUN.

She drifted
through reality

having become unmoored
from morality

fleeing from time
fleeing from her self

the insistent totality
of being

who she was
not.

A stranger looked out
of her

mirror.

A faux French
ingΓ©nue...yeah!

She choose today's mask
like she choose today's dress

something that hung
on a hanger.

Clothes were roles.

She, an actress
forever playing a part

in the movie
of her life

THE PURSUIT OF PLEASURE.

Never knowing the next
line

making it up as one
went along. . .
