ecause the market is down,<br />

Because we’ve heard<br />

That the sky<br />

is selling well.<br />

“I AM NARCISSISM”<br />

by Geraldine Fernandez<br />

Believe<br />

in what your eyes<br />

insist<br />

when they are naked<br />

in front of your lover ~<br />

the looking glass:<br />

“You wear perfection<br />

as matte foundation<br />

and waistline<br />

as chain of fire.”<br />

They are daily bread<br />

I feed you<br />

self-expressions I etch<br />

on blank hemispheres<br />

of your brain.<br />

“Keep those feet<br />

off the ground<br />

they are built<br />

for the pedestal.”<br />
