Unveil


My head
Fuzzy like a peach
And body a narrow
Unfeatured nude

At the window
Tugging at tangled strings
Of knotted shades

I must look to you
Like a crash test dummy
Unveiling the view
Of our wall

While framed in the glass
You, a Botticelli,
Reclined in flowing flannelette
And the wistful glare
Of a princess bared
Down to her last cigarette
