Glass Valentine

High in the trellis in the sun
There’s a glass dragonfly
With its lacey satin shadow
 
Almost gleaming like a cape
Swirling just behind it
Fashion is so ironic
 
As the figures of the sun
Come down the runway
The glass breeds another one of it
 
A dark woman pinned
Like a specimen
Ashen turning on a spit
 
But isn’t it just
The sun must take
Responsibility for both
