Chula

Naked in the mirror, she
bargains with what she has--
the self-invented scent of her neck,
these dollops of flesh
without the gesture of bone,
the hips that suggest venga! and
so much more, the dark reflected
curls tremble just above her waist
like fingers.  If she wears
the scarlet sling backs, they show off
her rump.  If she stands straight,
he will know she means business. 
When he calls her chula,
she feels as beautiful as soap.
