Wired Goddess

Like putty I use certain words on my face

like beauty

like ageless

like winsome

 

to fill in the cracks defining lines of years

it's magic

incantation

maybe witchcraft

 

I pack them on and let them work

like moor mud

like cucumbers

like mayonnaise

 

Glimmer glamour glimmer glamour!

Catch me in your arms once more!

May my name catch in your throat again!

 

Close your eyes and see my face

like mangoes

like dove's eggs

like sea foam

 

Glimmer glamour glimmer glamour!

Change a word and change the matter!

May my breasts rise in your hands again!

 

Call my body smooth and warm

Use the words that keep me young

Choose the parts of speech

like lovely

like goddess

my sweet love

 

Put words in my mouth and read my lips

like aching

like ecstasy

like melding

 

Glimmer glamour glimmer glamour

Time is words made real with grammar

Spell them, sell them, choose them well, then

 

Reach for me

Reach for me my love

Young forever
