He is a solitary hunter
who steals the light of the moon
and taints your nightmares gorgeous.
He shows you colors caught in prisms,
images that disturb what is forbidden,
that get under the silk of your skin
and let you discover your unseen world
spun in tapestries and stained glass.
He takes the words off your lips,
making them his own -
the secrets hidden in the well of souls -
to paint the sky, his only witness
to unspeakable crimes of the heart
as you follow the tangled threads of seduction
he has so cleverly laid out for you.
He has bought and sold you,
laid out the robes of rich desire
upon a bed of dreams held fast
by a canopy and veil of stars.
His lips implore you for more.
They seek confessions, transgressions
and dangerous promises, spilled from a tongue
grown heady and thick with wine
as he unravels your heart and mind
in the garments that pool at your feet
undone one by one by his deft fingers
leaving your fragile heart of darkness
the object of his obsession.
