Graceful Creature

A poem on Instagram models, lust, and false love in the digital age.

I am a graceful creature

Would you like to see?

Filtered, distilled, drooping strained creolin across canvasses of vacuous artistry

Loved by every eye that wavers on my form

Retweeted thousands of times across the middle east

Feast your soul on my magnetic relationality, oversubscribed and under-substantiated

Puckered red lips floating into neonate stratagems of excreted marketing algorithms

I give you life, birthed from the smut of posterity, irresistible waist quaking applause

Prostrating frames of sex

Follow me and I will show you all

Through the venation of the bloated crones that rule this state

I want to impale you on the thorns of my crown

The coronation of a limitless nation

Based on love, if that love is for me and I, smothered in the sweet bile of admiration

Words better represented as signified cylindrical urns doused in jealousy, not likes;

Liked by the likes of you, loved by those who do not know how, but pay for unattainable romance

This is my silhouette, this is my profile, a mosaic of tight skin drawn into appeasing poses

Try to touch me and accept that I am more than everything I have told you.
