the girl with glasses

she can't see without her glasses.
which is nice
when she takes them off
to kiss and make love to you.
you imagine that you might
be more attractive
to her when blurred
by her fuzzy vision.
a cloud of imaginary beauty.
you prefer dark, or candle
light these days yourself,
not just for her, but for you too,
a bar with friendly lighting.
at this point we all look best
when the sun or moon is
in full eclipse, or the bulb
stays unlit.
it's not vanity, just acceptance
as the days and nights roll on.
