Coco Chanel
I think I’ll write a
love poem
to Coco Chanel
She’s with me in this
pandemic
I can taste her on my
lips
She goes on smooth
not rough like the
whisker kiss
of that dance partner
She’s fresh and invigorating
Breathing her in, she
asks me to lighten up,
try a new look forward
Whereas, he stepped on
my toes
often on my heart,
Coco never disappoints
She’s there through
thin lips
and thick, mine, his
