- brite and wide -
AlKenny

could you see it in her eyes?
 1
all the ways and always.
 2
what would they be?
 3
- bright and wide -
 4
lovingly tarnished,
 5
now swathed in shades of violet-blue.
 6
trapsing, trolloping, baggy-jean blue.
 7
dragging her heels
 8
through the soles of her boots,
 9
through puddles that once were
 10
the mirror to the soul - as her eyes reflect
 11
the puddle. all too well-full.
 12
and awfully bedraggled,
 13
my haggard hands handle her;
 14
to prove some shape -
 15
the hideous, obnoxious,
 16
narcissitic date rape.
