Sara Fielder - Billy II

When I stuck my tongue into Billy’s ear
I could taste his mom’s perfume
bitter, but bearable when you’re
sixteen and experimenting
Snuck him in through the bedroom window
with his clunky platform shoes
He was all legs so he snagged his
polyester pantsuit
on the window bracket screw
I did his eyes up all dramatic
with powder blue eye shadow and
lined his pouty lips
with my glitter gloss
They were so shiny slick
they made my mind go dirty quick
Laying in bed
listening to lps
his small hands slid up and down
my teenage body
Then I smiled at him
with a sly eyebrow because
Billy drove me crazy
and I still can’t put a finger on his mystery
I just know he liked other boys
better than he liked me
