"There are limitations and there are protocols and I’ve been warned that I’m not supposed to threaten or beg for pieces of someone’s soul."

Richard Siken, ‘The Long and Short of It

"My mother told me I had a chameleon soul, no moral compass pointing due north, no fixed personality; just an inner indecisiveness that was as wide and as wavering as the ocean" -unknown


She twirls and flutters

hair FLYING ~ heart POUNDING

a shadow of the night

brought to

life

()

she dances

eyelashes casting shadows on her

palepaleskin

she's

I N T A N G I B L E

is she even real {you wonder silently}

she seems to be nothing

butbutbut

a

dreamillusiondelusion

a

silhouette against the light of day

()

you reach out a hand

you beckon

she doesn't seem to see you

or anything you do

so you climb the

WindingTwiningsteps

to the stage

where she dances

all alone

&and&

she sees you

suddenly

&and&

beckons you

(yes, you)

over

()

you're caught in this WHIRLWIND

ofofof

passion & joy & giddiness & floating

it's like nothing

nothing

you've ever felt

neverEverEver

()

She curtsies

inky, silky ebony hair

BRUSHING, caressing

her PalePaleskin

a testament

to

the darkness

that she was born to

to the darkness

in which she lives

()

he bows

caught in her

deceptively beautiful WEB of

floatingfallingflying lies

his ScarletCrimsonhair

waves gently

in the sudden gust of

W I N D

those SPARKLING, glazed

BlueBlueeyes

bright

against his tan skin

()

hazel eyes stare back

a kaleidoscope of

jade & gold & amber & black & emerald & violet & blue

ENTRANCING, ensnaring

him

in her so very carefully laid

n e t

()

you should run dear sir

run as fast as possible

awayawayaway

butbutbut

it's oh so very too late

he's captured

she has him now

&and&

he'll neverEverEver

get to

leave

()

they twirl

&and&

leap & glide & spin

dancing to a song

only they can

S I N G

a song of the ages

that only lovers

can hear

they DANCE & they SPIN

lost to the world

outside the

stage

NEVER

to be seen again
