she smoked her cigarette
like a german cabaret singer
with strangely angled limbs,
her head thrown back
dietrich style.
irregular angles,
with wrist and hand counterbalanced
by the crook of her arm.
art deco personified
as a human reference point,
forming an oblique shape
as smoke trailed
around her neck
in a wispy imitation
of a necklace.
