at ten past six women walk like fruit but i am not a woman tonight. i am my hedonism. i am her hedonism. i am the cheap satin that will hold my waist until someone’s hands takes its place. i lie on the pavement and indulge in the symbolism of it all. bathing in a yellow light i don’t know where it comes from. carcass with a beating heart, tell me where we met. time and air sit stagnant. diffuse. there is no breeze and it has been ten past six for over four hours now. borrowed motivation - stand standi standin standing standing standing sta s cotton hands. beeswax hair. there is someone taking money out of ticket machines and i do not care. oh, my insincerity my beautiful, beautiful insincerity doe eyes on the coal cut clarity and tonight I close them but now i am not a woman i am not my hedonism i am not i am no longer the protagonist of my own thoughts and I want to know from where the yellow light falls. but right now none of that is real. my satin takes the tears i get my kicks. nothing good happens after ten past six.
