"American Woman" by Jessica Michelle

American woman,
walking right on by.
Wearing a-line skirts
to hide her thighs.
Tossing pennies into
the fountain of youth;
covering herself up
to banish the truth.
Nip and tuck,
from head to toe.
Her true self,
she doesn't know.
Late at night ,
she sits alone.
Waiting for the "answer"
to phone.
American woman,
inside out...
lying to herself
only to cover the doubt...


Always Blushing,

Jessica Michelle
