we are the rebels of our time
the justice ensued, the crux of crime
the knife under your pillow, not for use but peace of mind
follow the quest, hold your breath, just kiss, don't die
brushing hands, ignite a symphony of candles
buzzing beneath skin as we bare teeth at the sky
unperturbed,
i sigh
willowing arms, soft and lithe
tyrant king, raise the tithe
salt air spray or grand betray or lurk through woods to fend your grief
it's all the same to me
happy endings no longer the norm
cauldron stews violence and lovers forlorn
picturesque escapery,
a larceny of reality
perilous endeavors
falling just the way you fly
better nice falsities
than false niceties
unperturbed,
i sigh
