Pretty

... ...

Afternoon sky
Clouds like face masks...
And their insatiable demand...
For a new romance

An unattractive woman
Then the look in her eyes
Then her smile...
And her prettiness

Pretty
A pretty maneuver...
In an empty atmosphere

Afternoon sky
Clouds like face masks...
And their insatiable demand...
... ... For badly trained verses
... ... ... ... Badly supplied... Badly led...

Pleasing woman...
Requires as a necessity...
Better stanzas...
Now she is my ally
