three - 1890 vs ?

feathers and powder and lipstick
dresses
primping and preening
like a peacock for the camera
hundreds of dusky photos
always the same sweet
half-smile
i am a good girl
i am not normally like this
but i am so hungry
for love
kisses and a/c
fizzy cold remedies
just lie quietly
don't worry
i won't give you too many
all at once
i know how your heart can be
piles of drawings
are these my aunt's?
is grandmother here?
luxurious wealthy
can afford to be slovenly
making things hard to find

i just want to trace the lines
