She

Location

Lost in altercation;

I am forced to circumspect

These moves

For with standing no

Fear, defeat is at

Arms length from me

 

Deference for you,

Do not forget while I

Yield, your adversary has

Begun…

 

Guile winds swoon

You into unknown pleasures;

Seeking impassive events

To carouse in…

 

Not even bluebloods can

Extract all of the fallacies

Within your veins;

Slither here, there, everywhere

 

Making the bitten mark

Anew with a beau of

The night, to swell up his

Luster and make it better…

 

Malevolent trances keep

Us fixed in your gaze;

Emerald in color, these

Eyes speak wonders

 

Capricious behavior controls

You, but we stare in awe

Of such magnificent chance

 

Such impermanence– she

is            

gone.
