seen and heard

a lie  
so subtle it kills  
if you listen  
 
and  
as sure  
as blood rushes first  
I erect will follow  
a headlong plummet  
into  
her deceptively velvet oblivion  
 
I will forget  
 
the endgame  
where lack of empathy  
romance, even common decency  
is inevitable, but quickly traded  
for the impulse to believe  
in her softly curved space  
concealing that underneath  
she is wired with nuclear lava  
 
 
 
her ass is a lie  
so subtle it kills  
 
if you listen
