she removes her blue
wig, sets it
on the mannequin head
beside the others,
takes her teeth out and lets
them drop into
a bubbling glass
of polident.
she unhinges a girdle,
peels off the stockings,
scrubs clean
an inch
of make up, using a small
trowel
and a green liquid gel.
then crawls into bed
and says hi sweetie.
love has a way
of accepting who we
really are.
