On the way to work
I often lurk
at a streetcorner shadow in the rain.
As my victim approaches
the feeling encroaches
and spreads across my face once again.
I like what I see
and know it could be
a glimpse of my new fashion rival.
So I dart from position
and make it a mission
to compliment a pretty thing on arrival.
The flash of horror-
when I ask from which store-
I might find such a clever piece of cuteness...
Is a humourous twist
on the chance that I missed
to compliment a complete stranger's astuteness.
Lauren Jay Wondra was born 1981 in Texas and has subsequently established herself as the livewire in an underground art scene which has followed her across the globe, trailblazing with a paintbrush through the likes of California, Mexico, and Washington, D.C. before settling down in London, England to paint life from a cubist perspective.
