The noise is immence.
Touching me,
brushing here,
grazing there.
Wooden shoes on my feet
making hollow sounds
on hard streets
closing in on me
tap
tap
tap
stop.
Here is where I will stand.
The sun glares
over the tulip princess
Around the curve of her breast,
beyond the painted smile
and tissue paper surface.
I catch your eye.
Behind your dark glasses
I know you are watching me.
Taking it all in,
absorb my image
every detail.
Feast for the eye
as my lover watches me
in this sickening crowd.
The acrid smell of exhaust,
the painted clowns,
the laughing children.
Cotton candy fingers clutching
balloon hearts.
The men that look at me like meat.
I know what they see.
I know what they think.
I know what they want.
Such a pretty girl.
If they only knew what lurks
beneath this skin.
If they only knew what you do,
of the deviance that stands here
on this street corner.
Under the blaring sun,
watching the tulip princess
and her procession roll by.
Beyond the painted smile
and tissue paper surface.

LeBrozover 18 years agoOh, she's an explosive one ~
not so quiet
not so innocent
just touch her and you'll see
what fun her parade brings.............
Wanton Vixxxenalmost 19 years agoI don't know how I missed this one, but I'm glad I followed the crowd and got to read it now. This was a wonderful poem, Sabina. My favorite line among favorite lines was,
"If they only knew what lurks beneath this skin". Sure gave MY skin goose bumps when I read it! <grinnin'> This was filled with dual observations of the parade and the woman who was the sole parade for her lover and the other men. Unique and somewhat coarsely descriptive at times, this was My kind of poem! <wink>

dcpoet44almost 19 years agoalso a colossal effect......often times what is underneath the skin often doesn't carry any weight. also, the title says it all. very nice........don
