#extravagance
extravagant dusk,
spreads gold dust over beach sands;
waves clamor for share!

Steel bars confined
my prowling mind,
circling the borders
in a dysfunctional order.
Rapidly beating against
my distorted slurs
of denunciations, I
kissed the keys
despite their razor
blade tongue affection.
Sudden silence brought
sudden reverberations of
you you you
and again, I
would take another
pounce to add
to my flowering
garden of purple,
green, and blue.
An illegal sort of
extravagance turned into
violently injecting me
with a poison
that I thought
would keep you
here with me,
but it was not
enough, never enough.
