The Nervous Villian


I have painted nights away in Valentino To make like Barbie to the man We ran the streets with unicorns Absorb the everlasting magic that oozes from me I’m a nervous villain lurking in the sunlight We shout, “Tonight is the night!” Showing off milky dreams that are stapled to my forehead I swallow piles of gems that glaze from your eyes Licked floral odors from the garden Chocked on daises I devour the sight of my cherie amour We jump across the oceanic blues Voodoo the lake monster Not once but, twice Strum songs in Yiddish Killed my lovers to make obscene moments Took candid shots to make a seductive dog out of you If only my heart could the talking.
