some ladies
need gold dollars
to create a mask
diamond illusions
of beauty
Beverly Hills haircuts
or the priciest
overpriced vines
and even though
my lover looks awesome
with all those things
she slides
out of bed
looking like money
it’s
the raw curves
and eyes that hypnotize
that drive me wild
always
but
maybe even better
she bought me
coffee
today.
