Girls like you


The yellow miniskirt is what catches the eye,
and the translucent black hosiery

Girls again, giggling, waiting for the subway,
naked and semi-naked legs stretched
into, and falling out of, patent leather heels

Back to college in their black tops, the
basic color of cosmopolitan chic, hiding
flaws and revealing silhouettes

Full shapes, already bloomed, know
they are peaking their prime, a more
radiant version always unlayering

The bouquet of girls beckon with youth,
still waiting to explode with discovery
