Behind the Finery
Behind the finery it lies
Perfumed
Caked in makeup
Like a fat whore
Hiding pock marked skin
And razor scars
Carving its story
Across the face
In blood red font
Like a movie set
A façade
Where Beaver and Wally
Dance with broom sticks
Preparing
To woo the girl of their dreams
All the whilefangs glissen like fine ivory,
June Cleaver’s fangs
Glisten
Like fine ivory
Preparing school lunches
Layered in false promises
And unending night
On this stage
Actors
Stick figures
Cardboard cutouts
Speaking monosyllabic
Affirmations
To Baal
The ending
Always
Ordained
Why read the book?
