Looking Glass
She looked at me, so pure, so vivid, so faux Her eyes gazed through mine, Sensitive and elegant. As I moved forward with a delicate gesture Her call beckoned me and she grasped me lightly She then maneuvered my body with mystique and ease
A feathered looking glass for reflection and protection, inspired by the risky yet empowering lifestyle of prostitutes in the 19th century.
