Keen Perception Of The Intolerable

I saw hatred... I saw beauty... I saw rage... I saw wonder... I saw insanity... I saw lust... I saw evil... I saw grace... I saw wrath... I saw charity... I saw greed............. as I passed by the hall mirror

She Pretended Not To Notice

She pretended not to notice
when I walked in the bar
when I sat down next to her
when I breathed in her perfume

She pretended not to notice
when I brushed her knee
when she touched my hand
when I spoke her name

She pretended not to notice
when I asked for the check
when I followed her out
when I followed her home

She pretended not to notice
when she left her front door open
when her button came undone
when I let out a gasp

She pretended not to notice
me standing behind her
my hand on her hip
my teeth on her neck
