"Lady Behind the Glass"
'Do not touch!' The sign is as easily ignored as the fingers that smudge the surface-
of the glass box.
Eyes focus on every move, ignoring all but-
what lies in, the behind the glass.
Men feel a sick excitement while they watch her, unnoticed, go through her routine, their gazes unnoticed.
only to have the pace of heartbeats quicken when she meets his eyes and he draws out her smile-
only to have the pace of heartbeats quicken when she meets his eyes and he draws out her smile-
She,the lady in the glass box.
Finally as lust fills his body and his head is lost in the sparkles of her eyes he smashes the box-
Freeing the one in the glass prison
Soon they are in each others arms while nary he notice his own soul sucked away, Only his body is left in-
the shattered cage in which "love" slept.
