Red Leopard

I will leave it to you To copy the words Onto the pretty paper.

The shadows lengthened Throughout the day Until there was a stillness Within the dark. A glimmer pierced the night. What was that?

Bouncing off of walls Very unsure Destiny’s child What the future hold. Shifting tide Under a full moon. Kept in the dark Goddess…Mother Holds all the keys What shall it be?

All this time I thought success was here. I was wrong.

If I could be famous For just one day, I’d write you a novel Full of hope and love. I’d keep you close to my heart So you would be safe.

Bang the pipes Loose of the crud and muck.
