Fashion Execution
Writhing beneath the mesh, lips parted
Grating tulle flexing over cheekbones
Skin sucked between pale, jolting ribs
Hips sliding A-line, knee bent, toes pressed,
Feet arched, and head jerked, calculated
thrashing. Tugging with slender-boned fingers
wrenching the fenceposts down over her oiled
paper chest, knees smashed against each other,
malleable marble, crumbling into thighs
Zipping blue-veined goose-flesh into painted
black metal zips. Dry palms over palm oil scalp,
painted nails over painted face, acidic throat
cleared into the fabricated air and the sound
of heels being torn against plastic casing
of unsharpened pencils writing lines up the
legs and over the curves of near-hips
Wobble-walking before the blank wall, pulled
tight, caged, staring into the black eyes, the trigger
pulling, click. Shadow splashing against the wall
Sliding and in seconds, fading.
