i'll begin by talking
about something that puzzles me
things like jewellery
and ice statues
fragile works of art
you cannot
touch them
gaze at them longingly
from a distance
today i'm just
wearing a baby doll
doing nothing
vegetating in my bed
in the afternoon
wearing my brand-new suit
i'll go window-shopping
to kill some time
at night
wearing a black gown
i'm invited to dinner
please call me madame
according to the tarot cards
the beautiful girl
