Lily was a princess, she was fair-skinned and as precious as a child,
She did whatever she had to do, she had that certain flash every time she smiled.
       ~ Bob Dylan


her hands itched  
for the feel of his arrogance  
surely it bore out    
the promise of his stance  
he saw her    
turned away  

the princess knew her way around
yet she could not smile this time
  
he was forever tall
with expensive brown eyes  
she knew she would pay the price

she folded her wings  
pitched her voice in the key of desire
laid her whole hand on the table

the Jack heard her
knew she was already his

he had only to stir the air

Ah, Kate, this is so good.

he was forever tall
with expensive brown eyes  
she knew she would pay the price


How did she get those eyes?  I was sure that I had bought them a long time ago.  And he said that they were one of a kind!

Hugs,
A

~ Oh! Lady Kate! You've found me out! lol

"he was forever tall
with expensive brown eyes  
she knew she would pay the price"

~ Some men are worth any price!

Love your poetry, Lady!

   An instalment that titilates the appetite with imagery that makes one yearn for more... Your mastery is exemplified. Perhaps, at least, a Novella... Yes?
