Babe, We Need to Talk

BRIDE OF SET

WRITTEN EXORCISE
(C) 2023 Kyrinn S. Eis

Sculped brows dark lines
copper arches shimmering
over eyes of sea dark wine
her undertow me summoning

Heavenly hash outside at night
a broken folding chair
collapsed and yet she held on tight
laughed it off debonaire

Inside she stopped by, made time
established strong rapport
her face burnt into my mind
was then I knew I wanted more

Met her friends to vet me
I think they said: okay
Listened looking down stream
was then I knew I'd stay

Light cast blue and pink
dramatic shadow lines
Lemon yellow exit
was so-hard to find

Bought four CDs after
just to talk some more
disappointed chatter
'haps thought me a bore

Maybe a whole week later
reached out to strum some strings
talked about my whether
and other sorts of things

Purchased lefty Fender
recommended by her choice
he'd hoped that it would end there
instead I'd found my voice

Mountains passed and then some
shred tire nearly burst
Apartment disassembled
high cost it was well worth

Motel rooms my studio
writing ever more
found my upstairs 'partment
even wrote the score:

Moon and Sun dynamics
sweeter than before
then off to overseas
emailed her while on tour

Woodland wander end November
declared my love and more
intervention stopped me
he sought to settle score

More songs and tears alonely like
piled at my door
words and allusions so trite
dusting up my floor

New Year, new chance to see
her again once more
But always only once to be
monthly and no more

My sparkling darkling love
So, now where are we
raven hearted blackest dove
feels like you-have left me
