And We Shall “Power-Couple” The Horizon…
Until Both The Flatterers and The Haters… Beg For A ‘Mercy’ Not Forthcoming
by Paul Tristram / August 29th, 2021
Say “Dyn-a-mite” for me
one more time, sweetheart
… whilst I razorblade
my cuffs and collar
… and slide in place
my ‘Tunnel-Visioned’
Veni Vidi Vici [War] face.
We’ve both bravely waded
through more than our fair
share of ‘Shallow’…
to finally reach this ‘Depth’.
Reciprocated ‘Energy’
levels buzzing and swirling
… in-and-around
the ‘Dance’ of our Union.
I’d be the Gentleman
and say “Ladies first”…
but, from now on, my love
… we shall be entering
all ‘Arenas’ Side-by-Side.
