Fragile Dance For Two

Inviting you into my heart was both a blessing and a curse did you not think ? to tell me in less reckless ways you lost yourself in this fragile dance for two Inside this tango of passion you dipped then dropped, where was the floor ? that swallowed me like a Spanish dancer with a Rose between her lips Idealistic player that you are we fitted right, so what sin did I commit? Truth be told the only one that I could think of was loving you too much Ignoring all your calls I tried to make a life without you in it but why oh why ? tackling all my dance moves you got me like a Flemish wounded poppet Indian giver that you are you loved then passed it on, so why was she ? tangerine lipped & coiffed congealed to your chest like a Minerva Goddess Ice cream words melted from the heat, castanets clapped & where were you ? tendencies often nothing more than Paso Doble moves for you, so you slid Inside your wealth like a hoof. A Hexabranchus man, did you not miss? the little doll you toyed with in Valencia while the festival of fire was going on ! August 27 2022 Sponsor Mark Toney Contest Name 2022 Poetry Marathon Mile 13
