A Beautiful Woman Comes to Your House

A beautiful woman comes to your house

And promises to make you beautiful


She has you close your eyes

Her touch feather light

So close as she paints and powders

That you feel her breath

Intermingle with yours

She finishes your eyes

And promises to make you beautiful


You can open your eyes

She works on your face

She leans on you as she paints the curves

Her body against your side

She moves on

And promises to make you beautiful


She wants to bring out your nose

Paints sections of your face ghostly white

She says to tell her if you don't like something

You say you'll tell her

What you want to say is, "I trust you"


She takes a brush

And paints your lips

You stare at her lips

Her touch is firm like a kiss

You want to kiss her hand

You want to kiss her

She promises to make you beautiful


She finishes

The ghostly white sections are invisible

Your eyes done like your ancestors

Your nose's shape lovelier than ever

Your lips made into dusky rose petals

She has made you beautiful


You wish you were beautiful for her
