Turning table of bare skin and plaster
Sitting model of perfections mastered 
Brushing every layer on blank sheets
Watering eyes for moisture in basking heat

Now cry those pictures prettier than me 
Wash away what flaws replay then flee
Creating beauty; an authentic frisson
Until the truth is unmasked to glisten

Strokes of warmth into lustrous mellow
Let me shine then fade a sweeter yellow
Add finishing touches on the drying husk
Then marvel at the paint of dawn to dusk.
