An Oligarch in Times Square
That will I never see another face
Insufferable is a wishful dream.
I am a pilgrim climbing up a wall.
And you shall see me groaning.
What is another name for limbo.
It is like the hell to which you aspire,
An unadorned existence never focussed
On a single moaning
Entity that deserves it after all.
Another voice that captivates desire:
It is a slur of Russian apathy
Trilling through an inexperienced mire.
How can it be so vapid, no contrition in a
Basin of luxurious telepathy with only
Those to whom the money speaks.
We see a vision of absurdity.
You only knew a pseudonym to
Match a lack of curiosity and your
Raving of the antiquated movies.
I do wonder how the actors move.
You promised me a demonstration,
Submerged in wine and loveliness.
I wait in humbleness.
Can I dare to speak.
In a room of emptied conversations and
Excuses wrought upon a party
Undeserving...
You invite yourself to tea.
I have wrapped up all the lies
Meticulously within a dampened bag of
Rosemary and liquorice.
You can hear the kettle screech.
I take up my perfumes, what can I devise
To treat you to a morsel bleak
And shadowed over with a loveless
Imposition of philosophy.
I leave you to your ways.
In lust we see what time cannot betray.
