Unredeemed Palms: Are We Partial?

 

White wine hips, deviant times, I was an adolescent.     I’ve met souls before: seductive art, winepress buttocks, forever a scream into ecstasy.     Many wondered over composition. “He must be fried.” One, like an eagle, watched as it hit manifestation.     By hate to love. By love to dismiss hate.

If I adored the more I received, the pain would become its dynasty.     Only by pictorial pleasures, if in airs, to capture a glimpse on a whiff of passion; did wrong, connected for eternity, never one dared to redeem their palms.
