Daggers drawn

She came rambling along with a Flaubert
and sat next to my table.

Condemned
as if by
eternal laws
I gazed
profusely
at her daintier aspects
Our eyes met
and I soared higher
singing chants of love.

Ignoring my soul’s beckoning,
her frigid eyes
danced to the simmering delicacies on her table
tore me apart like sliced bread.
