Leaving behind shreds of linen on the floor
I tip-toe out of the illuminated pathway.
Leaving behind the moist eyes of Modesty
I devise my Great Escape!
A thousand arrows from Phoebes' bow
Have torn apart my steady heart.
Patience grasps me in her arms -
The Seraph of my delusions!
A faint hope exists in my mind -
Her monster eyes shall not behold me.
An unholy contract with fate
Her search for me shall be futile!
The laughter of Desperation fills the sleepy hollow!
My hair wild - my liberty,
My clobbered body - a hormonal playground!
Mindless banter - Freudian Symbology,
Broken chains - empty spaces!
A street urchin stares at spilled milk,
Monochromatic images fill the fire!
My skin - shedding every drop of idiosyncrasy
I have devised my Great Escape!
See, the wretched Salome is lonely there!
