Sugar and Stinger

Her life like a horse A striping stallion Breath taking force Overseen by a falcon A fickle terrain And bipolar forecast Derailing her train Distorting her past A thunderous tide Bellows as it rolls With enticing eyes A story unfolds Gripping the clutch With her pinky finger White candy, her crutch Soft sugar and stinger Briskly trotting A tight rope beneath Tripping, falling A pool of grief Barely afloat Gasping for air Just one more boat To get here to there
