He watches her
Smoke rising, playing against her aura
Diamonds in her eyes
Sparkling like the morning sunset
Transcendent goddess
Temple like the minions who befall her
He watches transfixed
The stillness of the day
Dressing her ghost like
Dancers parade
Praying to be the chosen
Diamonds glitter
Charade passes with no promise
Decadent smile betrays her only emotion
The curtain closes
Lesser mortals fated
Sure as day turns to night
Diamonds in her eyes
Deathly kiss, as wolves howl in the night
Clouds free, as the moon searches
Transcending light finds shadow awaiting
Diamonds sparkle
Wolves frenzied as audience is given
Diamonds shine bright
Souls searching for the afterlife
Betrayed by her aura
Coals burn brightly
And the wolves are sated
Dark clouds in the distance
Diminish the burning light
The morning asks why
He watches, transfixed
Diamonds in her eyes.

At first read I missed the point and wrote a whole message but then after it dawned on me. The relationship of the sparkle of diamonds in the wolf's eyes represents the desire as it looks upon its prey. I'm just a little slow today. The relationship grows in magnitude as diamonds are often coveted as well so the relationship becomes even more complex. Nicely worded this poem speaks of lust and coveting. Well done
A girl's best friend, diamonds and sacrifices.
That's what they say
This is seduction as ceremony...diamonds not just as adornment, but as souls burning under pressure. You turn glamour into revelation, Paul. Stunning work. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛
Sacrificing time of year.
For sure.
Well written. My friend.
Thanks, Friendship.
A fine write P.
What we could do with a few diamonds.
