No Make-up But Lipstick
 


 

So sue me, I thought.
This is good for me,
And I like it.
Hair arranged to no one style.
Lips that are ruby.
The soft feel of denim
Caresses my thighs
And cotton adorns my breasts,
As I pull the hem
Loosely skirting my hips,
And prop my sneakers
On my desk and
Write about what I want.
This is me.
This is who I am.
Sometimes at my best,
Sometimes not.
Happy to be boring . . ..

Part of a poetry collect called,
No Make-up But Lipstick

I do like pink for my lips, pink lipstick that is. Also like the coral, but red is too bright for me. Cousin in Georgia loves red lipstick though. She is 77 years and wears it. I like the things you wrtie about. You are who you are and that is not boring to me at all. Each to his own, we are all different, the same would be boring if we were all that.

I like that phrase 'Literary Incorrect'. I love Stephen King too. Can't believe some critics hacked on him!

It's good to be comfortable with who you are, I wouldn't have it any other way. Nice work! ~Z~
