Poems - neon green

neon green

by chameleon

will anyone remember
how we made time in dayglo
neon fluorescing under black light
drawing eyes to the prize so modestly
undisplayed beneath the incandescents?

it was my first lingerie purchase
poison apple green shimmer
that I hid with schoolgirl
white cotton innocence
sweet sixteen at T minus three and counting
up the days till eighteen would set me free

barely illegal babydoll on simmer
blacklight backlit punctuated by the
pulse of the strobe that flickered
twice the beat of heated heartrate
I was

too hot to touch with anything but
bad intentions a lost dimension
of sizzle that whispered
baby baby baby
yours for the taking
at least for tonight
under blacklight
where all the bets
are for stakes
with costs to be determined
later

excellent rhythm, and really Enjoyed the alliterative aspects and glimpses into the feminine psyche; reminded me of the song: "Girl You'll Be A Woman Soon".
