Give Her the Red Roses

by FireFly - Libra

Silk touches, the feeling of moving time-
Beneath me-
Pearlescent swans with long baroque necks- 
Their beaks sifting into the outstretched-
Newly terraformed heart-

Cathedrals arches and pulpit sermons-
I’ve proven nothing-
The snake charmers on my Sunday stroll-
Ignoring the faghags exchanging blow jobs and phone numbers-
And bulletin boards posting new statistics and free giveaways-
I’ve proven nothing-
Alone, in those late night channel surfing meditations-
Searching for that channel <COD charges may apply>-
For some of that Tony Robbin's happiness-


While the silk touches, the feeling of moving time-
Transcend the changing moods in all my illusions-
She comes and I stay outside-
And wait for that packet of joy-
Before we kick our shoes off-

She and I, Bride and Groom eating and drinking wine-
Baby suckle love in wanna-be glorious triumph-
Love, love is there such a thing-
I’ve long ago decided on mediocrity-
Though, I guess the times come to reach out-
And give her those red roses-
I thought would never see the light of day-
