call me a Woman

I am not just pretty.

I am Ethereal.

I am Lethal.

My Eyes are Sharp-Cut Stones

and

My Smile spreads like Hot Butter

I am

Everything

and

I am

Nothing

I have Galaxies of Freckles

that

would take

a Millennia to Explore

My Legs have Traveled

but

My Brain has Gone Further

call me

a

Woman

I am

Nothing

and

I am

Everything

I am Lethal.

I am Ethereal.

I am not

I am not

I am not

just

pretty.
