Blinding binge of me
damned by the happily
I tasted for a bit
of scorned society
I now strut
in numbers one
the ark be damned
in place of me...
beg. plead.
no?
seethe.

I stand solo
for the understatement
of understanding
in means unknown
to shallow palm-
yet you try
(I’ll give you that)
I am not made of roses
(fragile petals of wilt
and decay)
I am more a moldable sort
the palest
the palest
of clay.

So I shudder.
no weakened tears.
be lady-strong.
for the so long
that’s bound
to escape
these perfectly
full lips in scorn.
(be silent)
I chide. I try.
I shudder inside.

Open arms can be the most fragile in the world...

Yeah, Tanya
When you've shuddered inside, (if indeed, you have)I'm willing to bet that no one would know.

"I tasted for a bit

Hmmm.

In reply to "which way do we go?", the answer was never "straight", but, "progressively forward".
