Ms Snapshot

by Desdemona Sinestra

He 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

And Dorothy never crawled back to Kansas again!

Curtain call....always the stand in never the star? At least that's how I felt when I read these lovely words to which I can totally relate. Thanks for the read.
