Suzanne,

        spin me around

                  in your little

            ballerina patterns,

                             until my

                   head twirls

                         with the world.

                                   ~

Her eyes tell the clock's ticking time,

   open windows from day to night

Hands crawl to conceal a crime

   taking hold, dented can of white

Her lofty limbs carry with grace

   paint on left, my hand to the right

Absorbing in my anxious face,

   she pulled me in with all her might

 As the winds rushed against our skin,

   and my feet tapping hurriedly

   I felt my lips shape up a grin

   Liberation takes toll quickly

       for we escaped into a flight.
