The Mystic Magic King
by: Madalyn S Lullenberg.
The Mystic Magic King
Takes a drag off his cigarette
under the hot summer sky.
He talks wildly to me,
as if all he’s ever wanted
in this life
was to impress me.
He drives reckless.
I don’t say anything
because what could I say?
When we’re together
at times he acts
like he owns the place.
As if he was Jim Morrison
in another life.
More like
a Humbert character.
Pushing and pulling
until I cannot take
any more.
Mystic.
Magical.
Tormenting.
