10.35 a.m. May 26, 2015.
Tear drops down cloudy eyes
Dropping and trailing along this dusty aisle
Beating to drums of hushed tones and thumping hearts
Hidden from you behind black veils and black drooping hats.
***
Tear drops dripping down mildewy eyes
Behind whose drooping lashes are hidden years of failed love and manly lies
Each drop a testament to broken dreams filled with lustful deceit
And nights of sweaty tangle in between rumpled sheets.
***
Tear drops down wizened and time-chiseled eyes
Forged into blubs of hate, revenge and hurtful spite
Dropping and trailing along the dusty center aisle
Hidden fromview, hushed tones and thumping hearts
By veils and masks of pearly bridal white.
Merci (10.42 a.m)
