She's dressed in red, tonight. She's got lipstick to match her shoes. Her eyelashes go on for miles and ..well, her legs they, echo beyond what human ears can hear. And she may seem flawless, for just one moment..your eyes will focus, on everything at once. But she says, it's what doesn't show that counts the most, and no one could argue that. She implies that if the laces are not tied, then, falling would be perpetual. If life's such an involuntary need to be thrilled, boredom would be more exciting. Smoke captures light and we're still lingering on like a complication. She smells of clove cigarettes, and old midnight whiskey written in her veins. If dancing were considered movement, walking would be just the same. She says.. clearly, it's never the aspect, but the memory. We blame our confusion on the red we see, but do not comprehend. |

A VERY interesting write with some fine descriptive imagery. Clove cigarettes is a new one for me! If I smoked, I'd probably like them!  Warm hugs, EA |

I like this, the difference between what we see and reality. |

This is very very cool. What we see often isn't what is real. If life's such an involuntary need to be thrilled, boredom would be more exciting. Very Very True. I asked God how much he loved me... |
