Susan Finlay

 

After Ballard (no, Cronenberg)

 

wet and puffy money

the body breathes through a tube

 

unconscious then scarred eyes wide

with zinc cream and stitches

 

you’re only as old as you feel

a precise incision

 

only you can change you

a signature scent of bleach

 

only the good die young

a vitamin injection

 

you’re only as old as the woman

you feel it creeping after you

 

well-maintained and tight as

surgery or other assets
