(no subject)

[caenum]

black painted nails
and a sunny disposition
every man in the room jumps
like a junkie for a fix
when you bat your eyes
in their direction

pile on your geriatric sensibilities
incendiary indiscretion
morality, a bonfire
with each lick of flame a new sin ignited

exemptions to the rule
surely a tattoo or two will make it all better
one pair of slacks in a room full of skirts
