Seen this girl the other day – she appeared beige, an almond’s aura, well dressed down, divinely ordinary; she was rocking Chucks – inspiration. I held her door (it had become hers), and she thanked me – beautifully. (“Thanks, man.”) I smiled, and then i left. She was too much, too beautiful. I valued her Converse greater than mine. Today i remember: things, ideas, my laundry, and her. Beautiful.
Realisations fall forth. Beauty isn’t skin deep. Beauty is being. Physiology is appreciable, but beauty is overstood. But folks don’t overstand; cosmetically they suffocate, un-accepting their luminance. Maybe she’s born with it. (Fuck Maybelline.) The paint on the picture ain’t the reason it’s a wonder.
