Second Coat

Someone chipped
the paint deliberately
and left it this way for aesthetics

Afterwards
they let light in from
the windows
across what
is now considered antique

The thumb
then hooked over leather finely designed
and repeated itself under bellybutton, small breasts,
flower print butterfly cardigan with chiffon cuffs

Those jeans fit to match the cardigan
the chipping paint
as it edged off blurred glass
which called to distort a blue spruce image

The button lock now a hole but
the top lock brand new
hand sanded
to fit
but not blend

A look is induced
placing a gaze on loose floorboard
while her mood is to entice
guiding teased hair to wisp and cover an ear

The paint is dark green curls
and the bars on the window
create another eyelash
