freckled cheeks / soft decibels
dress wearing
wine taster
dreamcatching
manhunter
an attraction
to green and yellow
an aversion to blue
an imprint of her muted form
under a name that hides her
she often lies there
in a shimmer
a bit of a sleeping beauty
in the pleasing shape
of Wisconsin / Illinois
whose charms
are revealed
like arcane secrets
only to those
with patience,
persistence,
and a lack of proximity
to heavy machinery
