Sultana

Surely sugar
She sweetly said,

Solemnly smiling –
She submitted herself
To his shame,
his secrets and sin –

She was his
Symbol,
His
Sacrament,
sketched into his soul

She swayed with him
In a sorrowful symphony –
His sneer
From under the sheets
Saluted her surrender
Her sacrifice of self

She seemed
Blissful,
simply -
her!
Subconsciously,
She swayed another
Stirring within
something sinister,
slithering,
hissing
with self-reproach
remorse…

Surreal
shine sun
spilled over the horizon

and sunk in the sea.
Serenity -

Slowly she swayed
Somewhere, somewhere
