To Anorexia, Wherever I May Find Her (Free verse) by JuddNelson
Under each Toni and Guy sign:
Four black eyes
On two blonde faces,
Neither smiling.
Each vacant face inviting me in
A prostitute with no pimp
Except the desires of their parents
And eating disorders.
Resembling a Belsen corpse made up for a Westlife concert,
Lipgloss applied with lethal precision.
Stare into her eyes,
Try and see her soul,
Or any other cliche
It just isn?t there.
The gaze of a rape victim
The emotion of a murder victim.
I knew the one on the left a few years ago.
I wish her all the best.
