Here's a girl in a black crepe skirt
and black blouse with red lace fringes
and a silvery ribbon belt. Her hair
is black and short and spiked, her
knee-high boots are laced below
her kneecaps and there’s silver in
her nose and mouth. Round with child,
an egg near bursting in a taut white
shell, inside her baby is bald and male,
all-nude and swimmingly happy,
sitting up front.
