diamonds like daggers
adorn around her form-
she scans the room
prodding, invading
with a mask of guile
throwing around
intoxicating smiles
they do not stand a chance
unwittingly lining up
to be picked up
like fruit from a tree
to which to whet her appetite
to which delight
and all in the while
they pretend
they have some measure
of control
when there is no doubt
she has it all
not even a game
not even remotely fair
just a moment
before she springs
her snare
and suffocates
the coils wrap
she takes the air
and all she wants
she simply, casually – takes.
Notes… am I past the swoon of a beautiful woman? sure, I could try and be cool smooth internet guy and lie that I have not been led by my eyes (or something else residing lower). But as you get older (hopefully) wiser… you realize (hopefully) that there is beauty in so many places other than obvious pleasing visions. Beauty is nice, it is a lovely component but it certainly does not mean a person is better… and it is all relative. Which would you rather have .. beauty or happiness ?
Music.. I can’t even put into words, how much I love this… Tori, she is just brilliant… and live a revelation…
Tori Amos – Upside Down (live)
Still gives me the chills after all these years. true art my friends.
