Flirtation…
when i see you,
i can't....
not.....
touch...
everything about you,
draws me near.
proverbial, moth to the flame...
hypnotized....mesmerized
where is it i, can lay blame?
these,
cursed wings, they don't beat alone
i can feel you flutter...
in 4/4 time,
across a hundred feet i don't own
and i know, you sense mine.
it's reason enough to run...
far, and fast away
it's implicit...
i get it..really, i do...
seems to me,
i'm complicit
you just beat me to the gun.
still, we circle back,
to that same, familiar place
magnetism au fait...
our means, to a banal complaint.
will this dance ever end?
.....consummate?
or flounder, and flail
should e'er we take the bait?
sweet highs, as i'm sure you've heard,
turn to sugar lows....
as resentment, takes root...
feeds itself, and grows.
could it be, that the flirt is the highest point of the arc?
then, tumble we shall, from our momentary grace...
back into the swill...
back to the mind-numbing chill...
ask yourself, "who'll take the chance?"
i will....
