Ms Snapshot by Desdemona SinestraHe picks you up in a small car
And you'll drink
And you'll laugh in just the right ways
And you will go along with whatever
Because you need to feel wanted
Besides
You can't let those overly seductive Instagram photos
dangle in the aether for nothing
Because you're more cratered than a moon
And tonight
One of those dents in your self-image is getting filled
All of this talk about the man behind the curtain
Sweetheart,
I am the curtain
