wave and fade away

by Wolfgang Nibori

you are the ice queen, standing at the base of Palms
smoldering sun of passion’s heat cannot reach you
rays never caress your untrue face
you are the widow who never mourns her loss
you are the Alcatraz. no love can escape!
your symbol is the shark devouring each attempt
still you wait, as a spider in the rafter
trolling down to poison. poison every day
my sympathy ran dry. in pretty pillows you shall smother
keep standing in the grove of Palms
i move on to touch Another. that’s a promise
