the Seidman sisters

known as the Vodka twins

deserved a life of their own.

sure they were smelly.

but they dressed-up very well

and there’s a soft quality to them

when their legs are exposed

beneath the slits of their gowns.

they seem out of place, and yet

they’re desirable.

I was told by an innocent bystander

that they were hired to be on-stage

bodyguards for Lydia Lunch who

by the looks of her didn’t need bodyguards.

one kick of those nyloned legs and the perp

would be out cold on the dance floor.

I haven’t made up my mind whether or

not the Seidman sisters could be referred

to as eye-candy.

I’ve seen photos of my younger self taken by others

and I wonder if I would've been eye-candy

to the Vodka Twins.

that is before they killed me

after having their way with me.
