Dangling time in front of my face. A rythmic ace. East to west. East to west. Ensnared. By this chain as it wraps around my chest. Hexed, dancing towards the edge of a chasm. C ontorting for you cynicism U nvieling for you undived attention. R easoning for your recoilation. S alivating for your sensuality. E xcusing your erosion. ---- D ancing in my delusion. --- You are the jack of spades. A master of trades. Colder than the queen of diamonds you've plucked from my mind and displayed. I am the rabbit you'll rip from your mad hatter. Impatiently awaiting my own dismal disaster. Pounding my fists; "Make this trick go faster!" Getting mixed up with an illusionist was hasty and unplanned; As my courage melts, he strokes my cheek With his sleight of hand.
