Seditious Sabotage

He runs around
Cleaning up her mess
Secretly wishing her
To let down her dress
...and stand

She follows him to death
Making him pay
Holding her heart
While he prays
...to god

They submit to rules
Acting like fools
Let someone else take the wrap
Comfort lines their beds
On satin cases they lay their head
As colored pegs line the map
...of a world

Unowned
