Line up the
Bottles on your dresser
Ordered
And measured
Have the water
Lines gone down?
So much perfume
So little time
So much bodyspray, our
Well-scented crimes.
Can I smell
Better than the
Next girl?
Should today be
"Fruited Almond Flower Quell"
Or "Coconut Island Sugar Swirl"?
What does it matter?
Just bathe in it
There's always tomorrow for
"French Hibiscus Pomegranate".
Because we're all just
Femme fatales
Or maybe our nostrils
Can no longer smell.
