The Bottom Line
in the early
hours of her
late night
her
cappuccino
skin turns
more milk
chocolate
ocean waves
pound outside
her window
asking instead
for her
to walk in
as if she were
the one knocking
but everyday she
dawns on a yellow
bikini contrasting
her now darkening
body growing from
twenty four to twenty
five percent
cocoa
after five days
four in full sun
i ask to see
and she
shows me
her bra and
panty tan
lines
