Last night
I was an emerald woman
In glistening
Aubergine tights.

And my head was
A spinning disco ball
Reflecting mango
Fragments of light.

And it didn't matter that I was there alone.
And they were there too.
I wasn't w i t h o u t.

It's a gorgeous thing-
To be so transparent
People see
R i g h t t h r o u g h
You.

I get the benefit of not being there at all.
I'm a fly on the wall,
And it's better to see
From the outside
The life I forfeit
That always made me feel

Like I wasn't
