Sigrid Ermine Poet Rhyme

Refusing Fear

Pressed into cavity, wardrobe holds captive
Constrained where space is a premium
Love lodged squashes logic, lungs ravaged 
Quicksand scenarios draw a dreamer in


Denigrated to respondee in his spare time 
Hung on railing to wear at convenience
Smiling nicely to speeches of a shared life
Passed opportunity pops my congenial


Friendliness strung with fun doesn't endear
Resists my charm like chalice poisoned
Realms kept seperate lest wretch interfere
Rationed portions bring a brief rejoicing 


Abruptly leaves, impetus sprung immediate 
Swum mosquitoes among murk spread
Sting truth beneath a furtive fable feeding it
Sore heart can't receipt his ebbing debt


Cement devoid of tears ceases to imprison
Desert sand manuevre accomplishes 
Shatter of shackles farewell shadow limits
Dazzled escapee has copious oxygen 




               
                2nd January 
       Sacrifice won't suffice
