I Go, Where You Go

All alone a framed painting stands.

For centuries its tone, its detail from gentle hands.

A candle stand with the light abound,

Making the scene all the more grand.

~

The gold filigree of its borders weave into women’s hair.

The brown of the wood base holding steadily,

Almost lifting it to the air.

~

I was here, and you were there.

I was ashamed, but you were fair.

This is a dangerous game, you laugh sincere.

~

I will be the victim of your will, My Dear.

May I catalyst with precision and you grin,

Ear to ear?

~

The torch,

I blaze the corridors to fall this morning

And on sacred ground I hallow thy name.

To rend and scorch the earth

In cadence to the verse from the beginning

I curse it all the same.

~

May the Goddess damn the ivory walls

of your treacherous home.

Your Promise to her must be ed,

And so it is said and done.
