The backward glance at
Fuzzy pillows with sequins
And glitter.
Longing palpable.
Her grown-up
Pulling her forward.
Desire
Unnoticed
Or ignored
By necessity.
The lady with the voucher
Says clothing only.
I search frantically –
A jacket with sequins
And glitter
Must be here.
A jacket makes a
Perfect,
Portable,
Pillow
In a pinch.
We take the magic
Of sequins and glitter
Wherever
It appears.
