Lipstick Divine
Leaving a print on coffee cups
and cigarettes as well
making a mark on societies deluxe
casting shallow spells
looking to the front row
to spot what they have on
at a Hollywood picture show
she leaves that print for fun
mirrors, mirrors in the hall
and in every single room
sashaying by them on the wall
resembling Cinderella's broom
while she lays upon a daybed
linens to display
she sleeps alone detailed
and has no one to play
this decision is her own
for she doesn't prefer a muss
he abides by her rules in silent tone
to avoid a fuss
she'll act in this way
upon the glass domains
until it crackles as does sway
lipstick divine remains
