That Swing Thing
Originally uploaded by Mute*.

I'm a velvet encased palace today. Bottle green pants, a black tank top, a pale pink tongue. The world is full of girls like me, I just haven't met any yet. It's such a shame. Kiss me sky, please kiss me. Tell me that I can learn not to be haunted by that devil smile, that ragtime pair of whispering lips. Desire has been lying to me, telling me that I'm beautiful and I don't need that right now. This week is set aside for young reactions. The ember burning boy knows I'm the sea and stars, and the memory of that dizzying reaction shall be enough for me. My cup of human kindness was quietly laid to waste with my lover touching someone else's skin, so now I need to find the will to make another. I'm getting better. It feels superficial, but I don't know enough yet. I'm still learning. Maybe it will turn out to be easy to rebuild. I can feel focus accruing on me, meshing with my skin. It feels top-heavy, hollow, but I suspect that's just who I'm going to be right now. A pop song princess, simple, lyrical and confident if shallow from the inside out.
