Beauty queen,
Lipstick crusting rust-ily
On a serene smile -
The curl of sleeping beauty's
Mid-dream whimsy -
Frozen against the cold stretch
Of pavement,
as if to kiss the earth.
Breathy laughter stilled, glassy eyes - gilded with steet lights -
turned to the distant horizon,
Where there are rainbows,
and kind men, happy endings,
And dreams,
We all pretend
Come true.
