You look like the statue of David
She said with a smile
I stood beside her bed naked
And remembered hearing those words
Half a lifetime ago
I was 24 and had large arms and a muscular chest
A beautiful redhead looked up from my bed
Satiated...she had uttered those same words
Back then it had been true...nearly
And it was still nearly true
If the woman in question has poor eyesight
And can't seem to find her glasses
She retrieved her glasses from the bedside table
Oh...there you are. She said
She watched as David snapped into focus
And she suddenly realized
How little she knew about art
