ROUGH TRADE
ROUGH TRADETTE ON WEST QUEEN WEST
A lot of spills lately Beet juice
cascades down my legs looks like
vampires lunched Peach purse now to die for ruby
Paul Newman Caesar smashes
in aisle 8 I walk slowly away as oil slick
stains beige patent leather
But she is near perfect old lace scarf
haphazardly placed Perfect diamonds perfect face
Peachy sprinkled with pale freckles fuchsia lip
Lipstick stays in place as baguette dismembered
Young husband bland as can be
When she drops something she
does it oh so carefully
But her voice rough around the edges screams G.F.E.
And it finally dawns on me that freebies maybe overrated
__
*G.F.E. girlfriend experience
a form of prostitution includes
french kissing, hugging, talking, and
eating a meal together
