The Staircase
Skating down a staircase she descends
like the wind unannounced
"greater is the power of one" she whispers
to my telepathic mind ;
A seductress leaves nothing to chance
her body mimes me soft and her skin heals
my separation ...
Sheathed in beauty wearing Emperors new clothes,
she shimmers with intensity and life;
Her cheeks resemble two persimmons in heat
though I find myself estranged from her cubic eyes
lost in the magnificence of her crackling red hair,
her voice is a science that bathes me with words
"greater is the power of you and I "
then she enters my dominion, with a still silence
that makes me cry;
I sweep her in my arms the staircase crumbles.
