Chameleon girl,
you switch,
with each serial
killer moment,
A freckle-face, brown eyes soft
with endless promise,
Heels and stockings
in the glare of
the brake lights,
A sexy sneer on a culpable homicide,
Swallow my car-crash
under a blue cross,
soft skin plays over mine
in the morning.
Smells like the garden
of earthly delights,
a chorus of angels;
and demon-spurred riots.
I want to hold you in my arms,
but all it seems I can do is
write you songs.
I will collaborate on the mysteries,
with you take part in their downfall,
With you I am afraid
anything is possible.
I am a dangerous man,
I vanish like mist
in the face of
commitment.
But long after good and evil
and far beyond death do us part,
You’ll look around
and find that I’m still around
