Tonight, I've finally found you.
Your radiant beauty of a hundred summers
Is to me
The crushing despair of a thousand winters
One look at you
And I'm jonesing for a cigarette
One look at him
And his arm around you
And I need a shot of gin
To go with that smoke.
The lamb we ate
Was like broken glass
The salad like weeds
Naturally, I had to have seconds.
It's not fair.
I was already alright.
Having a ball.
And you just had to come ruin it.
Now I'm pining again.
This sliver of a woman
Willowy legs
Billowing auburn hair
Quiet hands
Gliding past
In fluid steps
Breaking bones
With feather touches
Of her eyelashes
Sighing velveteen butterfly kisses
My unspoken adjurations
Meet nothing but the
Silent grandiloquence
Of a raised brow
She will never be mine
So I force a smile
And dream some more.

That was some **** good lamb, too.
