Study for Reclining Female Nude, by Vincent van Gogh
Charles Bukowski

a man's woman

the dream of a man
is a whore with a gold tooth
and a garter belt,
perfumed
 
with false eyebrows
 
mascara
 
earrings
 
light pink panties
salami breath
high heels
 
long stockings with a very slight
run on back of left stocking,
a little bit fat,
a little bit drunk,
 
a little bit silly and a little bit crazy
 
who doesn't tell dirty jokes
 
and has 3 warts on her back
 
and pretends to enjoy symphony music
 
and who will stay a week
 
just one week
 
and wash the dishes and cook and fuck and suck
 
and scrub the kitchen floor
 
and not show any photos of her children
 
or talk about her x-husband or husband
 
or where she went to school or where she was born
 
or why she went to jail last time
 
or who she's in love with,
 
just stay one week
 
just one week
 
and do the thing and go and never come
back
 
for that one earring on the dresser.
