Brunette or red head

not sure but

matter it does not

muchly tho do

unhat what covers you

unshade those eyes

reveal those truths

to me

A subtle vibration

Birds chirping

The dawn greeting

is silent but

welcoming

The shower hot

Full breakfast with beans

on the side

The drive effortless

The Green Wave

across the city

A smiling face in

reception, the first cup

a delight

the carpet covers

cardinal sins

dark deeds

done without

poison done

within

The list of not so clever things

is mine, and mine

alone

I promise you only one thing

promises are for

losers of faith

let the swing take you

over the edge

to oblivion and

I will be there waiting

the burning bush
