Ivory Idol

glowing sort of like a firefly, flirting with my wingspan, pissing me off you're such a good example, but i can't see past you you're blocking my view will you better me always? i love to watch it, though it pains me every time it's beauty all the same

maybe i could pull it off in some other country, some other coast pretty tinkerbelly laughter, something i can reach for but you catch me half-butterfly, yanking up my chrysalis with embarassment (it fell off before i was finished)

you're such a good invention,wish i'd thought of you first someone will always mention you just when i think i'm about to and i could carve myself from you, but you'd be hollow, and i'd be small, my ivory idol
