its
true if i walk into the mall
ill see the bras you design propped
lazily on mannequins
whose bodies lack disdain
for realistic pro-
portions.
though
if you open the pages of this
magazine, that one
ill
be in there, baring all. per
haps even with some words / images to spare
on you.
i am
not as nude as your mannequins
though i believe i am more
convincing in my
whatever
it is i say to you
as you leave / as i leave
the
evenings find their way into the walkways
of my day;
the
robustness,
the erect nipples you run your
fingers over at work while
straightening your tie
finger
me. i never lie.
only
with you when i am horizontal.
do
you see now our propaganda?
