soft gold filaments
glimmering gossamer
palimsest of other peoples' longing
object of lust
icon
talisman
paragon
conqueress
queen

i long to be
such tempting labels
titles and gifts granted
graceful and wanton, shimmering, shifting, reactive, responsive
long lean and languid
sanguine, blood-wine, my lips taste metal, sharp, bitter
the tang of base elements
the sheen of those more precious - gold plated eyes, silver dusted cheeks

always kind, pre-emptively gentle
direct, invting, available

so there i am : she, he, both, it, neither, all,
anything you can desire, i can become
trans it
trans substial
trans in dental
trans for

gossamer, mist, ephemera, trinket, token, charm, changeling, challenge

all would love me and perish.
