Drunken Crimson



The glass of your transparent gaze,
has shattered on the spinning floor.
Crimson tears floodgate their invisible boundaries,
staining the ivory carpet,
the
the thin membrane breaks,
tears.

I am wine-drunk
in your heady gaze
your crimson lips
your captivating presence

you have my pulsing heart,
i stagger: drunk, wasted, broken
because as wine wastes the drinker
your nonchalance wastes my soul.

Drunken crimson,
the glass breaks, and all hell breaks loose.
