/// In La Toilette she powders her nose.
(She had heard that that’s where powder goes.)
With the edge of a blade,
on her mirror she made
white lines formed into neat little rows.
/// Chantal fears something’s wrong with this stuff.
It’s not making her feel good enough.
Snorts cause sneezes. She blinks,
and that’s when Chantal thinks,
“How can I use this cute Powder Puff?”
/// To experiment, now she’ll begin
to dab white powder onto her skin,
and she sees it erase
oily spots from her face,
and help hide a small zit on her chin.
/// Her pale nose has turned scarlet from gin
as some substance addictions begin.
Yes, this art clearly shows
the girl “powders her nose,”
but does powder go outside or in?
/// Sneezes triggered by allergies fly,
causing rosebuds to sail through the sky.
And those sneezes, worse yet,
were excessively wet.
Jenny keeps her umbrella nearby.
