Pretty Little Thing

Forbidden fruit drips its nectar onto the bare chest of a gasping mistress
for a while now,
This day has been approaching in its inauspicious genesis
In all its glory
with history as its only testament
With time
to waste
Sensations to elevate
The eyes themselves become unwilling witnesses
A tale to be hold
A destination not unfamiliar to both
In unusual elegance
Dressed for an ordinary day
He Lifts his glass for an honest toast
Despised by many
although loved by most
All of those
Tipsy bubbles float
Amid the Champagne
With friends disguised as foes
Unleashed into the wild seas
As the waves double-cross
Oceans away
The sand slithers between her soft toes
Miles from her
He is lost
She can bare to watch him from opposite shores
To these people
the beatification of the self
is taken as a serious afterthought
An exciting proposition
learning what was never taught
Stumbling upon riches of which he never sought
A sight to see
the artistry
a phony philosopher is caught
Gazing
Upon imagery
Splattered on eaten cloth
With an ordinary cough
The enticing exhibition evolves
Hatching the exact plan
Crafting the perfect alibi
Crafty getaways
Patches slung over one lazy eye
Escape shows itself
to be a pack of whorish lies
It is dark
It is depressing
It is only she and I
Inviting
Chancing heaven
A walk through fire hoping to fry
A request made by angels
no sane man would ever deny
The choice is simple
Comply
Or die

jyss my friend .. you amaze me. In all the works that you place here, there is
an ache .. a need .. a definite plea, though perhaps not as apparent in some.
This .. damn ... this is such a deeply moving write. There is much in here
to tease and tantalize the senses and bring about emotions that
might even be lying dormant in some. And the ending? Holy heck! This
read in a way like a movie .. but it never ever lets one settle on
an emotion. In fact, I think I may be suffering from emotional whiplash
right about now ...
Excellent, as always, jyss. Just brilliant!
