Voyeur
Clandestine invasion reveals dimly-lit indulgence.
Candlelight... a luminous ring,
'Round two young lovers
Bathed in Sin.
Music pulsing, iniquitous,
Slowly churning each caress,
Satiated, oblivious ...
Anger exposes an uninvited guest
As jealous fist of flesh meets pane
... of glass.
Shame creeps into wounds from which
Concupiscence drips
... and lies dying
In footprints that steal into the shadows.
