All those perambulations
Dark nights caught up
In your fraught solitudes of time
Sparkling shoes that you wear
Full gloss to fall under spotlights
An unlaced attempt at forgiveness
Afterwards to go a wander
Full of deep lust and longing
Across your fields of mauve
One more hug of the shoulder
A snatched kiss of your lips, then
Pushed away, pushed towards oblivion
