Painting

Are you a painting 

Beyond the varnish 

Your oil is breathing 

Like an orchid 

Like the tide 

Are you fainting

Like a boxer 

Your bobbing weaving 

Punches slip me

Like a glove 

Are you tainted 

Like a statue 

Your veins are melted 

Like a fortune 

Turned to rust 

Are you naked 

As a perfume 

Your essence leaves me

Lost in wonder

Hypnotized.
