23 Cents Martini Girl

She is cherry candy.
So cute.
She is a pink and white nightie.
So cute.
She is the treasure that is not too perfect.
How cute.
A coy smile and a cute stumble,
How cute.
She likes cheap cartoons and chutney,
And 23 cents martinis.
So cute.
She likes to play saxophones in cemeteries
So cute.
A beautiful craziness.

Her eyelids are large like her sexual drive.
Not the happy ending
More like a middle,
To save your boring life.

Easy to be with.
Cute when you want.
Coy when you want.

She’s got diamond skin,
pink fingernails and glistening drool.
So cute.
Of all men,
The flies on her flesh,
She has eyes only for you.
Flies on her flesh,
that don’t exist
Because she doesn’t exist.
Outside your fantasy
She is fiction.
Yet I find her on the TV screen,
An adorable “Katrina”,
making little girls wish they were hurricanes.
