THE VASE
So beautiful
so virginal
she remains untouched
on the pedestal
above reach
above approach
pitcher-perfect
porcelain pretty.
How I wish I could fill her with fluids
diminish her value
abase her allure.
I want to empty my bile
my basic acids
my tears and sweat
all
into her
and see if she can contain them
maintain her composure
retain that integrity
that serves her so well
leaves her unattainable
beyond reproach.
How I long to handle her shiny curves
smudging the beauty
darkening her glaze.
How much I desire
to cheapen her enough
so I could finally afford
to pay the price
to take her home.
