Butterfly Lust

"Butterfly Lust"
Oh sweet and tender butterfly, how colorful your dance centered in Earth's naked sky. Beneath daylights over-cast, I'm your audience laying about the green purified grass. Come sweet and tender butterfly, land low to the reach of thy lips with your wings spread wide. Three yards and a cloud of dust, I dissect all your desires borne from the outset of lust. Oh sweet and tender butterfly, how colorful our dance now centered in Earth's naked sky.
Pace, G INK-U-SCRIPT 11-1-19

Hey Mr Pace where are you and why are you not writing my man? I was reading through your writing and I was enjoying them and wondering how you are because since 2019 not one! I’m in the newest Anthology and about to start writing a novel! Writing Poetry has been the greatest relief of my soul! Peace Bro
