In Front of the Avalon

Missing that Sultry **** Of stained coffee and stale cigarettes. We thought we were French, and perhaps as Close to rebelliousness as the Midwest would Allow. My eye make-up made me Alive and a woman Stronger than you And could ever be. With those candles And cement blocks you penetrated me And I was alive.
