Over the Golden Week

Over the Golden Week:

Despite autumn, weather stubbornly refuses to cool. 

Started all on a plane, the studied indifference
as opposed to a bus the difference is studied
sick between Australia and China. 
(because of the physics)

One polar to the other with intention
in multiples (unknowing) in different colors 
(willed), rich wine drunk with color.

powder-pink a hint of mauve, 
tight around the upper thighs, 
last of that color, that powder 
pink no compact holds.  So I decline

subtle snakeskin does more for my dark circles 

Jade in Shanghai, not in situ,
but very versatile, 
silk too short, wool perfect to the hips, (for fun, mostly), 
gorgeous long dark red wool, 
draped organic wave-folds and flower petals   
Now more comfort subdued, show-offish 
style a lot of draping and layering 
which conceals as it reveals. 
Jade specializes in that sort of thing.
