You Make Me Believe

She’d had to allow the corruption to become a part of her in order to survive, neutralizing and owning it while bound to its puppet strings.

He’d met her there in the darkness – had called out to bridge with love’s intention, awakening the passion she’d held under tight leash as it ignited her need to embrace him.

But when she saw him suddenly in person in a brief glance shared that none before could ever compare, her hidden innocence suddenly recognized his hidden innocence – and two pairs of wide blue eyes starled back to their cores in a flash of white gold brilliance.

Transformed into unicorns and both confused by their suddenly repairing souls’ clammoring to take this union seriously, their high spirits kicked up heels in overwhelm – and tossing heads fled to opposite directions for safe distance.

Capricorns I’ve Known

Candid Corvid Productions

Like unicorns brandishing horns
Climbing to the top of mountains

Bugling their vision unhearing
Other sight having equal merit

What pressures felt to be right
Rooted in earth bound so tight?

Telescopic points of dissuasion
Difficult to budge if bargaining

Goat head-butting forcing truths
Demanding respect’s adherence 

Knocking others off their paths
Chiding them for not following

I wonder if they had been raised
With more gentility of generosity

Perhaps they wouldn’t need to worry
About being so righteous in their glory

And my love for them wouldn’t be wasting
Upon sharp stones where it was trampled

Note that I too can
Brandish my horn

Unicorn Trauma Bonding

Candid Corvid Productions

He found her one day
Not realizing she was

Impaled by others’ horns
& Stuck to the Tree of Life

Bleeding out in silence
Trying to hide the pain

Relying on camouflage to
Avoid alerting predators

The shock in her eyes was
Recognition not rejection

Instant pushing away flash
Had been meant to protect

Both him from her desperation
And because she had infection

Kind of hard to exhibit confidence
And go prancing to a most beloved

After unsticking one’s self without
A way to cauterize deep wounding

So he left not understanding that
She wanted most to be with him
