EASY VIEW:
there is a picture
laid to rest
between worn pages,
the tale of a boy -
beautiful, benign -
and a limits girl
who never found the
edge
of her world.
a tale that ends badly
but captured here
before the finale on celluoid
bereft of his guilty blush,
void of her tear-obscured
passion driven
plans,
twinkling in a matching pair of
bedeviled/beloved
green eyes.
here is the table where lovers
end their lives
an ever ready silver gun on one side
poison of a bittersweet nature
on the other.
here is where love
comes to
die.
