4 inches

I sit & read becoming the incredible shrinking man

found at every carnival.

The one in black. The other hawkers face. The one with a collapsing chest.

I’m the Hawker. 

Then I’m Delilah being hawked.

“Gentlemen... come... gentlemen Delilah awaits..."

Then I’m Delilah shaking & twitching on stage.

But you came for the sucking off of your cock, 

not the miraculous – me – illuminated, floating 

4 inches above the stage.
