Once he was an opal.
A talisman of written word.
He was so unlucky.
As opals shine in white.
A slice of alabaster.
Once upon a time, you were her lover and her master.
A master blaster.
A prodigy.
A study.
Twisted with disaster.
A master of complete deceit.
Treading hot coals with naked feet.
Fine art.
Kind heart.
Confusion wore her merits.
Painted down air force blue sleeves.
As a pair of sergeants stripes.
Inside a chamber filled with thieves.
Left behind so many wives.
Not wives really.
Lady loves, who loved him dearly.
The attraction to his disciples.
Wonderful smiles.
Turned perfection.
Worldly wiles.
A coyote.
Scavenger of distant souls.
Disinterested in reaching goals.
Howls and cries, tear filled eyes.
Emptying into old tin buckets.
Kicked over with the left foot,
Cleaned up with the right hand.
The wedding band from her left finger followed suite.
Bye bye lover.
The order of the boot.
