Note: I'm currently watching A Streetcar Named Desire while I'm writing this - so that's a fairly large influence on this poem! I realise it's similar in themes to Waiting In The Wings, but I hope you enjoy it, and please review.

DESIRE

a Hannibal poem by JetNoir

hatred and power

as we lust between

the paper moon

which hangs beneath

us. i move to the left

our terrible and beautiful

dance continuing always

never ending never

ceasing (not that

i WANT it to end)

the lake we are

up to out waists

in is cold but

we are warm

no need for

towels in the

white light my

life throws toward

me - not mapped

out for me but our

destiny which we

take, without cares or worries:

for nothing can happen

to ruin this love and

desire…
