SYMBOLA KEPT SAYING

 

I want

To dance nude

                                     

At midnight

Across

The interstate highway

 

Wearing only ear rings

A navel ring

Ballet slippers

My nipples rouged

 

Whenever I look up

At the stars

At midnight

I just begin shaking

From the inside out
