Detected Deceipt
DETECTED DECEIPT
at last
i detect the delectable aroma of the past
the shine of her perfume
whils't i stroked her golden hair humbled by the loom
at last i need sleep no more
for she hast walked back in my door
with a muffled rap on mahogony and pine
for once again the lovely be claimed as mine
bejeweled and beddazzling whist bethothed to beauty alone
i gazed into whisome eyes that always and ever shone
she'd look at me from across a kitchen table
and i would catch my breath if i were able
at last i detected the odor of yesterday
and recalled nearly everythiing the lady had to say
then i remembered the flash of her anger and ire
and now i detect the odor of a smoldeirng fire
so go once again and leave your scent behind
for i don't need to see you or have you inhabit my mind
beause the aroma was sweet as tupulo honey harvested from a vista vast
but now you're gone again.......at fu**ing last
