elysabeth faslund - Mongoose and King Cobra

2014-06-14 22

I dance in a circle tonight,
In a garden under that
Silver,

Which betrayed your scales
To me. Your eyes and
Intent.
Your coldness.

I dance around you laughing,
Tonight.
Do you watch my eyes,

And their intent? Do you hear
My warm blood beating with
Your death?
