authentic stories of sad creatures

 
  
Imperceptible  
posturing    
casual indifference    
to cruelty    
or was it  
imagined heartbreak?    
   
Lucrative saunters    
voicing    
hip swingin'  
perfect undulations  
rhythmically hypnotic    
a soul capturing sashay  
veritable sly-pied piper    
marquee maker    
   
Collector    
of    
many    
finding    
them    
all
 

  
multitudes    
swarm    
   
buzzing  
moths  
to a flame  
they  
flock    
   
Finding requiem relief    
in a form  
of functional    
identifying    
   
Haunts    
of the haunted    
   
An end  
to a means;  
a means  
to an end    
   
Pinned trophies    
fragile wings  
sadly stretching

stretched
   
encased-highlighted    
   
   
A frozen    
showcase    
   
   
death  
by    
choice    
devotion  
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
undying  
 
 
to    
the    
bitter  
end.
