wrapped up in words so extravagant
in power, flaunting an edge so sharp it pierces
right through the bone and then all
i have to do is
wrench
for it to snap and then a complete
disarming that gathers its
uncertainty into an ugly little dragon.
yes, you.
you,
with a quiet silence tantalizing
noisy hearts, vocabulary slipping among
folds of sophisticated intellect and then
delivered with a gentle
wrench
in the gut as its contents proceed in
disarming so completely and
powerfully an ugly little dragon.

the attention everyone else is busy deflecting.
no.
the answer is no.
we shall be honest with our needles and clothing.
we shall unclench our fists and untwist our fingers.
oh lovers, oh beloved, oh renewed,
how now?
shall we be our ugly little dragons,
or extend a necessary grace?
