Mannequin

with slightly slanting eyes
      and pouting purple lips,
           her face can mesmerize,
           prickle your fingertips;


      sinuous, jet-black hair
      down white, satin blouse flows;
           skin of olive sheen there,
            your hidden longing grows;


      black leather pants gleaming,
      hugging long, shapely legs,
           a hoop-style, gold earring
           in each ear your heart begs;


      bracelet spirals allure,
      rings on her fingers spin,
           you're cupid-struck for sure
           by a live mannequin !
