A Foolish Arrangement

Use A− / A+ to adjust text size
Christabel stripsAnd slips like a dreamBreaking ice with arms that gleam with painDisdain...She throws her headAnd glides against the streamThrowing me her bravest smileDefiantGlitteringShivering guile"Catching a cold is quick this timeBut fish?... Fish may take a while..."Christabel dips and slips from meAnd hand pushed deep inside is suddenly freeTriumphantReluctantlyStruggling six legs held up for me to see"Don't be scaredIt's nothing newIt's the same old game; only fun with two..."But fast and over and over"I can't play this game with you"Everything she tries to tell meLeaves me open mouthed and stillFoolishly arrange tomorrowThe way I always willChristabel tripsAnd grips my handBut never to be savedFor a second I understandAnd I fall with her..."I'll never leave youLove youSee you change into the man I wantBut it's not for long this thingIt's not for long..."
