CHARMING

Charmin, Isn't it?

The embroidered bracelets 

Dangling on the left wrist

Behold the gold plated chain

Stuck to the neck.

Fascinating and fantastic. 

Surely, the diamond plated and arranged coats

Oh! And here it is, for the eyes to behold

Charming!


What have you seen in Milady!?

The heels that stood on top of the marble floor?

Or the shining rings clasped to the fingers?

The shout of the hair bends?

No, it seems to me not,

Not interested

Beauty to behold

Until it's not

Charming.


And then, is it?

The cold not warm blanket

White the colour, is that?

Wrap around thee for further journey

The gold behind and the diamond plaits

Then have you seen the charm in death?

No! Death is more fascinating 

Give kudos to whom it deserves

In lieu of the worldly in ruin.
