it is not gratitude to grace tiers –– but anticipatory pant , your silence serves as a pre - emptive . ( & then you strike ) . to swipe at his foundation with outstretched foot and watch him crumble , an admonition of mortality ; the way marble imitation of life , etched by astringent tears of centuries passed , collapses in on itself with final expiratory whisper . let this boy , gold - clad defender of your perceived fragility , fall so you can press a heel to that chest now robbed of breath . to think of self as such ( a maiden awaiting saviour ) is a fleeting pantomime , enough to twist mouths edge . ❛ who are you ? ❜ propose a haste he may not yet discern with blade ’ s retrieval , as burnished as glare , hovered at larynx so he may promptly sing . ❛ i recommend you keep your answer brief . ❜
