Nude With a Suitcase

Nude with a suitcase

Comes into view

Expression blank as anything

That calls

Dimly lit against

Deep violet curtains

And pale eyes sunken against

Flesh that is sure as a fog

"It's all made up either way"

Said the fly that followed me in

Just like losing my teeth in a guillotine dream

I'm free of my now former needs

A careless mind wanders onwards

Far beyond reproach

And held behind the curtain will always be

Far more than you'll know
