Poem

"Plain women know more about men than beautiful ones do."

                                                             Katherine Hepburn


Beauty in the mind of the beholder

Labelling prejudice masks of projection

Cursive weaving loops of adornment


          Venus hidden under Mona Lisa’s smile

               Mirror mirror on the cat walk’s wall

                    I know nothing but that I know well


Narcissus marvels in the golden pond

A snake slithers from an apple tree

William Tell shoots again from the hip


          Marilyn shows off curves of delight

	       Bows to a cross of enchantment

	            Takes another sniff of cocaine


Hepburn revels in passing Morning Glory

Seduces independence unveils her charm

Stakes claim on Goddess of smashing seduction


          When the looking glass shatters to pieces

	       Burrows wrinkles deep in the face of time

	            Cinderella throws a shoe at the image 


A crossdresser debunks devouring myths of fatal femmes

Hermaphrodite mounts a quick challenge on Trojan horses

And after all its a plain man’s ride in a beautiful world


          No serenade and no rodeo when Juliet receives

	       Romeo disguised as a bank clark from hell

	            Counts his losses when costumes fall short


And yet we classify the beast and its false allure

When instead we are better advised to take value

From upright meaning without mascara and shadows


          The scribe challenges such categorization

	       Dips his nib into a fountain of truth and

	            Chuckles when lip sticks kiss true virtue
