Your eyes keep you Different from me. Like velvet chains They block invitingly. I long to enter but know I don't belong. The words that escape you Bounce off of my ears Like gravel But I don't flinch - Smiling, inviting the mink To the trap When it springs You shudder and are happy And I release you As the hands pull back.
