Fixed
Slow motion agonised gravel crunch
Picks and flicks sharp stones under tyres
Glinted handle clicked forward introduces
Arresting view of her beauty polished
Soft and ready, yet bristled. This is her day
Ivory plumes escape cancels rear wheel
momentarily, somebody helps her collect them
Blipping her radiant expression from view for a second
Shaken cascade skirts slip into billowing dominion
Grazing the ground, her trembled fingers clutch a fold
Spring of chestnut curl renegades shine synchronised
Slide on Ivory sleeves, molest floating neck
- I have forgotten to swallow. A tennis ball wedged..
Leaf suffocated branches obscure me from her
Closer, towards the broad staircase, silk magnolia drifts
Accosted by the same scent, where together we spent...
Flourishing bloom steps deliberately, zig zag skirts
knead each tread, she turns her head, concern crosses
eyes which were mine, her alternate man ends me
Nonchalant, reaching the vast entry way, her lips part
Rise of her chest tauts her corseted gown
My brow bends, channels sweat to my eyelids
I don't think she's regretting it
Flushed airbrushed skin itching to begin story book..
Hopeful eyes, encouraged as a fresh deer captured
.... Now's her time to regret it
Rapid splinter branch shrieked pleas briefly snag
Barrel trained on traitor's veil, keyhole fixed
