Sudden Kindness

Sudden Kindness

You spilled the milk! she sharply said

And I, clumsy little bit of a girl that I am

Hung my head and nodded in guilty silence

And that's all there is! she rebuked me further.

Nodding again, I felt a big tear form in my eye

Slide down my face and fall into the small white puddle

I could never do anything right no matter how hard I tried

That much had been established.

Feeling her anger, I sought to run but could not move

My bare feet were frozen to the spot

My tears, falling like rain now and blurring my vision

I did not see her moving towards me.

There, there, she said in a soothing tone

As she took me into her arms and smoothed back my hair

It's alright, it's only milk, it's not gold. We'll go buy more

And I was so surprised by her sudden kindness that I began to weep.

let that devil be

let that devil be



perpetrating storm
she lied with sunshine
flattering with a look
that belied her cold disdain


patronizing innocence
she became my heart's betrayer
falling in with clear skies
she became my drowning rain


truth was not one of her gifts
nor was it in her nature
sincerity's beguiling dance
a trap I dropped into


 red rose scent upon her skin
it hid the smell of danger
luscious lips and snake skinned hips
and dark clouds in the blue


seducing like a sideshow
in the eyes of curiosity
in the latter days of childhood
before the boy became the man


I threw my money at her feet
and entered at her bidding
left my soul at her front door
and I've not seen it again


flashing pretty darkness
the morning fled forever
redemption's promise blazed and burned
and the rays of sun were gone


swallowing me like a sugary treat
she wiped her hands and mouth
threw me in with a thousand men
and her lair became my home


perpetrating storm
she lied with sunshine
her hands of sin are never full
and now they're holding me


if you should hear her honeyed voice
don't listen to her calling
turn your ears from her sweet song
and let that devil be.
