Victim to none

RiverJordan



She blew a death-kiss; I smothered it,

my heart is armored; yet bears gashes and wounds,

the roofless disheveled dwellings of a hopeless romantic,

with a clenched fist I weather lust's thrashings,

vortexed by haphazard sweet-nothings,

she planted a poisonous seed; I took the candid apple,

another sullied love,

*The sound of indistinct hissing

the serpheant people in robes slyly approached and waited for me to bite,

I swallowed it whole;  she chuckled joyously.

she said " you love me for my well endowed hips, my fruitful bosom and my blossom red promiscous lips; come here give me a kiss ."

I kissed her on the cheek

I said " this isn't the 1st time I've succumbed to primordial temptation, I was born into sin, I'm immune to lethal injection, I love your attributes but my love streams deep beyond whats reflected on the surface...I'm numb....I feel nothing."

Without a word she swayed away and dispersed with the rest towards the hollow metropolis.

I stand firm, sturdy and unscathed.....yet again... with a hearty tight clenched fist

Love always remains.
