Barbie Pink

Barbie pink with buxom breast 
Spread across a bony chest 
Thus recline on bentwood chair 
As she unfurls her blended hair 
A passer by 
A darker night 
A fleeting thought 
A fairer sight 
Marble eyes with curled strong lash 
Stare glazed as plastic living naught 
Wander him across the street 
Breeze on skin this night has brought 
A corner turn 
A friend to greet 
A moment in this life to cheat 
Who will occupy that chair when Barbie pink’s no longer there?

Another great poem, David! I could see the buxom-breasted Barbie and the impact it had on the passerby. Well done. Carolyn
