That Lady
There are phases to looking at women on the street
Yes you see them before you see them
But then you look away
Afraid to to find out they don’t love you
Sneak a peek
Then look away
Frightening
And deadly
Full of kindness
They know
They know the world you can’t find under that janus mask
World might collide
But that lady would be the dividing line
Sneak a second peek know it’s all over
You’re found out
But still shy
Now walk along strong
And un-humiliated
You know she will
