i would like to draw attention momentarily / to the fact that my nails are in fact perfect / perfectly manicured, perfectly healthy / perfectly coated in a slash of scarlet / perfect for posing elegantly in / sophisticated bars, clasped gracefully / around the sloping stem of a cut-crystal glass / perfect for snatching attention Look / a gesture disguised as a wave / a brushing gently across a cheek / a blushing gently across a stained sheet / perfect for letting the interviewer know / that i am competent, capable, neat & efficient / because my nails are perfect / and it's all about attention to detail / enough experience to go into retail / perfect for allowing me to pretend / that i'm something i'm not / old skool movie star Porn star Rock star hooker whore / we always used to call it prostitute red / then laugh / being a slut is never passe / and you're never past it baby / perfect for raising in prayer, a focus of my aspirations / red like the tears of a god / red like the severed wrist / red like a thorny rose / perfect for scratching out my eyes / so when you say 'no' / i'll never have to face you / again.
