Black in Friday's Silhouette
By lupus tenebrae
In touching base with every word,
their luminescent white is heard
through poinsettias and
all unknown,
and Friday lights that feel at home.
Cream dares, calling coffee black, in its careful trace,
silhouettes
talk poetry, laugh…in touching base.
In saving me, a simple
girl,
could seem familiar in a world
where passing
glances, aisle two,
can mean the same, as breathing you.
Pausing, for a brief refrain, in a verse, we’ll be;
intermingled
fingers, that clasp…in saving me.

Author's Note:
In the silhouette of this particular day, a person's true character is shown, for better or worse. My second wrapped refrain.Comments on "Black in Friday's Silhouette"

You are the most poetic around, your words have such impact and scope. I'm sure they mean many things to different people. I pictured a frenzied strip-mall romance that is so much more than lust of capitalism but love from the greed needs bring.
