You talk when you walk with your swagger and depth

Speaking phrases with your boot flapping feet walking down the road

suggestive of another way of being with you

 

As if the chattering of the parrots above likely jealous of your walk

as they can only but fly away in a flurry of wings breathless

to the stinging honey shouldered from your piercing  lips

 

Dripping sweet nothings easing into my world ever-so-gently

coaxing into caring lying as if a treasure trove awaits

Your cadence is cacophony across my ears rendering false melody from my heart

 

The whole wide human race has never seen the likes of you

Getting on with your giddy-up gadabout ways and easy saunter

You think you pulled wool over eyes and created a safety net

But the piracy of your ways shines through the dark cloaked heart

from the cool wet darkness of where you truly dwell
