the causality of karen


(O that my tongue were in the thunder’s mouth! Then with passion would I shake the world. – Shakespeare)

 

the sunshine saturates your hair

breathless, all i can do is stare

hair and shirt, bright red radiance

my every thought is decadence

 

window shop displays, in the way

you look but all i want to say

can’t we just move along this date

to what we do when it is late

 

where we are standing at your door

instead of “goodnight” my kiss implores

for invitations to your charms

incarcerated in your arms

 

as moonlight mimics my caress

and with a whisper i confess

my sigh is just a compromise

for your beauty i would die

 

for no face or form could compare

to that which locks me in a stare

remiss to kiss and know the bliss

of turbulence and tenderness

where passion becomes a performance

alleviation in accordance
