[2018] Surreal

  
Men can pine
for amorous women
glamorous 'round the clock
twenty-four seven  
 
I'll take the one  
looking as though she
woke up on a KISS tour bus
or in fishnets on the dock
at quarter past eleven
 
There has to be
more chemistry than  
silicone
pharmacy
chemical peel
 
Perhaps I'm alone
in thinking this
but in my heart
I feel it's not meant to be
If you're not the real
raw deal
 
Why conceal
a true body of art?
Spends hours daily
applying a shopping cart
just to look like a mass
subscribed to ideal?
 
We won't be dating
if you don't grasp the difference
between accentuating and
faux
blown  
surreal
