blackmail
I have discovered
I am a blackmailer
trying to win you
with extravagant gifts
and pronouncements
black pearls to cling
lovingly ‘round your neck
hummingbird pendants
carved by northern artists
proclaiming you to be
“bringer of joy”
long drives to exotic places
where I photograph you,
protesting at first,
then warming up to it
deliciously engaged
delicious photos
selfishly taken
to delight me
when I feel the need of you
