who is that girl?

after she got her new nose,
and her skin
tucked
behind her ears,
making her face tight
as a drum,
and her tummy
squeezed clean of fat,
i almost didn't recognize
her when she walked
into the room.
her eyes were blue now,
not green,
and her curves seemed
to be more curvy.
but then i knew it was her
when she ordered a martini
and a basket of fried calamari
and onion rings.
