Slipping AwayBlack hair, firm skin, good teeth
Dreams buried deep underneathUseful uterus, a certain insouciance
Living at full pace, no search for balanceCrying at will, feeling unafraid
Golden days, charging out on crusadesChanging course at a whim
Obsessing about being slimLaughing at middle-aged men
Ogling, eyeing, brushing menGetting drunk late into the night
And not flinching at the morning lightAll slipping away, far far away
At the end of the day’s play
