Her dress had a small angelic touch to it
the way the argyles on each cathedral
use to stop and stare
change their faces from a gothic time
to an angels stare

She wore her dress
for the love of a man
came and went
but the love of a man
came towards her small red ankles
Her red lipstick
that shades the woods
and let her trees feel her ease
so the dress that she wore
angelic, for the frills of a man
came at the peace of a solemn use of the water
the river that ran by her
like the strangers that lost their bridge
for the heart of a woman
never lost her dress
never did she wear it unless the night
brought his firm, battered hands
towards a still painting
of a woven neck
that staked itself against the lake of a shadows plank
